Bamberg does magic: magical moments from July 18th to 20th, 2025!
In the middle of the historic old town of Bamberg, which is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, the exciting “Bamberg conjures up” festival will take place from July 18th to 20th, 2025. This powerful street and variety festival attracts around 250,000 visitors to the city every year and promises three days of magic, acrobatics, music and spectacular shows. Around 100 international artists, including magicians, jugglers and fire artists, have applied to present their skills on one of more than 20 stages. [InFranken.de]. Entry to the festival remains free as it is supported by the generous donations of partners and supporters.
A special highlight of the festival is the affordable “hat money” system, where viewers can support the artists by donating to their hats. Alternatively, there is the option of purchasing a festival badge for just 3 euros. The badges, one depicting a magical fairy and the other a mystical phoenix, not only help the artists but also help ensure the event is free.

The program is packed with numerous attractions. The festival starts on Friday at 5 p.m. with the Bamberg rap combo Bambägga, followed by children's attractions such as airbrush and glitter tattoos as well as face painting. The official opening is scheduled for 8:30 p.m. and a “Magic Night” with Matthias Rauch rounds off the first day. bamberg.info emphasizes that young talents also have a stage to present their own shows and demonstrate their skills.

Family friendliness and safety concept
The festival is particularly family-friendly with a variety of children's attractions and special information points where children can receive bracelets.
