Castle beach in Erlangen: holiday feeling in the middle of the city!

Holiday feeling in the middle of Erlangen - that's what this year's castle beach promises, which opens its doors from June 26th to August 10th, 2025. On around 1,500 square meters, a summer landscape with 200 tons of sand, deck chairs, beach chairs, food trucks and an exciting supporting program that ranges from live music to DJs to show acts ensures an unforgettable experience. The Erlanger Schlossplatz becomes a hotspot for all after-work connoisseurs who want to relax after work or during their lunch break , reports the Nuremberg press.

One of the big attractions is the VIP lounge, which is created through a cooperation with the event agency dopamin.events under the direction of Patrick Siegler. Here visitors have the opportunity to meet Erlanger Nachrichten editors and enjoy one or two drinks and delicious food. Even better: The publisher is giving away several tickets for access to the exclusive lounge , as the castle beach website reveals.

Tasty offering for all palates

The culinary selection leaves nothing to be desired: tarte flambée, bowls, currywurst as well as Mediterranean and vegan options are on the menu. The emphasis is on quality: meat comes from regional butchers and vegetables are purchased fresh from the Erlangen weekly market. A well-thought-out service concept should also ensure that guests can enjoy their food and drink in seconds without having to endure long waiting times says Christian Frank from City Management.

If you prefer something more sociable, you can simply relax with friends, as bringing your own food and drinks is not allowed. The proceeds from spoty sales on site are important for financing the event. The visit becomes even more of a social experience in which the focus is on togetherness , informs the official Schlossstrand website.

Attractive environment and accessibility

Schlossplatz is not only the perfect location for this event; the entire environment experiences such refinement. Accessibility is also taken into account - wheelchair users can easily access the premises, ensuring a completely inclusive experience , as the website describes in detail.

The opening times are also attractive: daily from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m., and on Fridays and Saturdays even until 11 p.m. If you have a larger group or are planning special events, you have the option of reserving beach lounges for private parties or business events. However, reservations are only possible for larger groups and some specific seats , as mentioned on Rausgehen.de.

A visit to Schlossstrand is not just an excursion, but a short summer vacation in the heart of Erlangen. If you are curious and want to find out more about it, you shouldn't hesitate to take a look - maybe even, with a bit of luck, get VIP tickets for a special experience.
