Kleines Fest in the Great Garden: variety-arts season starts in July
The popular variety-arts festival once again turns the Great Garden of Herrenhausen into a stage for acrobatics, music and comedy.

The Kleines Fest im Grossen Garten is one of Germany's most successful variety-arts festivals. In 2026, international artists perform on several evenings from mid-July to early August at scattered venues across the baroque Great Garden - from juggling and walking acts to music and poetry. Tickets traditionally sell out within hours. After dark, illuminated paths and water features add to the magical setting.
