Festival Maritim: Sea Air, Music & Global Sounds

Over 30 bands from across Europe play more than 170 concerts on eight stages. From sea shanties and folk-pop to heartfelt ballads, this music festival has a unique charm and definitely stands apart from the norm.
Musikfest Bremen: From Classical to Global Beats
Between 16 August and 6 September 2025, Musikfest Bremen brings the northwest of Germany to life with sound. Across 30 venues, you’ll hear orchestras, opera, chamber music and jazz—featuring a blend of international stars and up-and-coming talent. The main venue, Die Glocke, sits right in the heart of Bremen’s old town. Our hot tip is to end the night with cocktails in our stylish bar in Bremen.
Don’t fancy a fest? Just fall in Love with Bremen’s Old Town instead!
Wander through the Schnoor district and you’ll step into Bremen’s oldest neighbourhood, full of cobbled streets, crooked alleyways and colourful half-timbered houses. The little shops, cafés and galleries line up like pearls on a string (which is exactly what “Schnoor” means). Don’t miss: the Bremen Bonbon Manufaktur for handmade sweets, the tiny Packhaustheater, and the legendary “Katzengang”—one of the narrowest alleyways in the world.
