Music often binds emotions and memories to experiences – especially at festivals, which create unforgettable experiences through the combination of music, location, and community. It is precisely this interplay that is the focus of the “Nürnberg klingt nach!” ampaign from the Nuremberg Convention and Tourist Office.
In addition to its historical and culinary fame, Nuremberg looks back on a rich musical tradition: from the Meistersinger era with Hans Sachs to Johann Pachelbel and today's diverse music scene. The music festivals in Nuremberg – whether large crowd-pullers or finely curated festivals for connoisseurs – carry this diversity out into the world. They make use of the city's architectural features, transforming historical locations into stages and thus creating a special connection between music, space, and audience.
Six outstanding festivals – st. katharina open air, Musikfest ION, Klassik Open Air, Bardentreffen, Nürnberg Pop, and NUEJAZZ – are at the heart of the campaign. They impressively demonstrate how music and the city merge into a unique experience in Nuremberg.
Festivals with surprising highlights? Sounds like Nuremberg!
