Stages 2026/2027: Premieres, Guest Performances and Open-Air Productions

For the coming season, premieres, revivals, guest performances and cross-genre evenings will once again be scheduled in Ingolstadt. Especially practical: many dates can be planned as after-work culture or as a weekend program.

How you can make the most of the next season

• Autumn 2026: ideal for premiere weeks, first guest performances and accompanying formats such as play introductions or audience discussions.
• Winter 2026/2027: a good time for indoor programs (drama, musical theater, readings), often with compact evening formats.
• Summer 2027: here, open-air dates and outdoor evenings will again be announced, which can be booked particularly early (note weather-dependent information).

Ticket tip: If you are flexible, it is worth watching for additional dates and remaining ticket contingents, which can be released during the season for highly demanded productions.

Concerts, Cabaret and Film 2026/2027: Series, Specials and Weekend Dates

In the 2026/2027 season, concert evenings of various genres, cabaret and comedy dates, poetry/reading formats as well as film and themed series will once again be announced in Ingolstadt. For visitors from the region, locations with good public transport connections are particularly attractive, as arrival and departure can be well planned even on weekdays.

What you can pay attention to when choosing dates

• Genre evenings: Thematic double or triple bills (e.g. support + main act) are often announced, which are worthwhile as a complete evening.
• Seated vs. standing places: When booking, check the seating plans and notes on seating, as different setups are published depending on the format.
