Location of Kultur Festival St. Gallen 

Kultur Festival St. Gallen takes place in the courtyard of the famous Kulturmuseum, located on the eastern edge of St. Gallen's Stadtpark. The courtyard is a five-minute walk from the city centre, handy for anybody arriving from out of town by public transportation from other cities in Switzerland.

The festival takes place exclusively outdoors. A significant portion of the courtyard is covered by a roof that is installed specially for the festival. That way, events can take place in all weather.

Delicious food at Kultur Festival St. Gallen

Food is an important aspect of Kultur Festival St. Gallen, making it the ideal summer night out for mingling, enjoying music and food with friends or family. Catering is provided by Silvan & Jonas Bärlocher, a food establishment that emphasises "seasonal, regional and organic whenever possible". Depending on the evening and concert, festivalgoers can expect to taste delicacies from the countries and regions represented in the programme.

The bar also offers beer on tap from Switzerland's oldest brewery, Brauerei Schützengarten in St. Gallen, fresh spring water from Gontenbad, local apple juice from Mostindien and a cocktail bar with a changing selection of great cocktails.

Plan your visit to Kultur Festival St. Gallen

It's easy to reach the festival venue via public transportation. If you're arriving by bus, you can travel from the train station by bus line 1 (towards Stephanshorn), line 2 (towards Guggeien), or line 7/8 (towards Neudorf) - and get off at the "Theater" stop.

For anyone driving to the event, it's good to know that there is ample parking available. Since the Tonhalle and the Stadttheater are closed in summer, there are plenty of parking spaces around the park, namely the Brühltor car park, Stadtpark car park and the Spelterini car park.

For anyone cycling to the event, there are official bike parking spaces at the Athletics Centre.
