Summer in the cultural triangle" festival

Experience ten days full of cultural diversity in the heart of Hanover! The festival "Summer in the cultural triangle" transforms the city centre between the Schauspielhaus, Opernhaus and Künstlerhaus into a lively stage. You can expect an open cultural programme in the open air - with music, film, dance, literature, spontaneous performances and encounters. The aim is to combine art and city life, involving both established cultural institutions and Hanover's independent scene.
