The Baroque manufacturing site invites everyone to attend the grand summer celebration event
The cultural heart of Aachen, Barockfabrik, will be hosting the much-anticipated Summer Festival on Saturday, September 20, 2025. This free event, open to all, will take place at Lohergraben 22, rain or shine.
The festival will commence at 3 PM and promises a delightful blend of literature, dance, music, and local products. The VERS - Literature Café, located within the Barockfabrik, will provide food and beverages throughout the day.
One of the highlights of the festival will be the "DANCE + POETRY" event, hosted by ARTbewegt e.V., the Literature Office in the Euregio Maas-Rhein e.V., and EuregioKultur e.V. This unique event will feature a combination of reading passages and improvisation dance.

Visitors can also take a behind-the-scenes tour of the city puppet theater Oecher Schaengchen, one of the many associations and institutions that call Barockfabrik home. The Theater School Aachen e.V. will also offer a taster course in "Acting-Improvisation" during the festival.
