Konstanz Seenachtfest

A range of ticket categories is available for the Konstanz Seenachtfest. The standard day ticket grants access to the main festival area, including Stadtgarten, Konzilvorplatz, Hafenstraße and Klein Venedig. Reduced ticket prices are available for children, families, people with disabilities and holders of a social pass. Children up to and including the age of five receive free admission. Visitors can also purchase reserved seating tickets for Seestraße or choose from exclusive VIP packages at the Konzil. All ticket categories, prices and current availability can be found online.

For the first time, the Konstanz Seenachtfest will combine a spectacular drone show, light art and the traditional music-synchronised fireworks into one unique performance. The new pre-show features a carefully choreographed drone display that will light up the night sky above Lake Constance. It will be accompanied by illuminated water creatures and fantasy figures created by the French artistic collective Porté par le Vent. In 2026, the fireworks will be launched simultaneously from three different locations on the water and on land. Another musical highlight will be Felix Jaehn, performing live on the Radio7 stage at Klein Venedig.

From 5 to 7 August 2026, the free Stadtgartenfest will set the mood for the main event. Over three days, visitors can enjoy regional food and drinks, performances by local artists, a family programme and the beautifully illuminated Stadtgarten, creating a relaxed and festive atmosphere.

As the event attracts large crowds, visitors are encouraged to travel by public transport, boat or bicycle. Those arriving by car can use the paid event car park at Konstanz Airfield, which offers a shuttle service to the festival grounds. Parking can be booked online in advance and costs €10 in advance or €12 on the day of the event. For the first time, coaches can reserve parking spaces at Döbele, within walking distance of the festival site. Increased traffic is also expected on Lake Constance, and private boat operators are advised to follow the temporary navigation regulations in place for the event.
