Once a year, popular newcomers from Germany and abroad transform Baden-Baden into a music metropolis. All music fans and the entire pop culture scene can rejoice! Baden-Baden will once again become the "SWR3 New Pop City".
Every year, the SWR3 New Pop Festival transforms Baden-Baden into a stage for up-and-coming national and international artists. Where talents such as Ed Sheeran and Bruno Mars once launched their careers, music fans can now experience the stars of tomorrow - live, approachable and full of energy.
Between the Festspielhaus, Kurhaus, theatre and Lichtentaler Allee, modern beats merge with the historic backdrop of the UNESCO World Heritage city of Baden-Baden. In addition to the exclusive concerts, the New Pop City offers a free supporting programme with open-air stages, DJ nights, parties and a red carpet over three kilometres long, turning the city centre into a glowing meeting place for music lovers.
The SWR3 New Pop Festival Baden-Baden is more than just a music festival - it is an experience of culture, joie de vivre and urban sound that inspires anew every year.
