CAMPUS
During the Darmstadt Summer Course, we will have a festival office at Lichtenbergschule which will be open daily from 20 July to 2 August 2025 (each 9.30-19.00).
Most of the course activities during the day will take place at Akademie für Tonkunst and Lichtenbergschule.
The fastest way to get to Lichtenbergschule or Akademie für Tonkunst from Darmstadt Hauptbahnhof / Central Railway Station is the bus R (direction: Böllenfalltor). Please get off at “Ludwigshöhstraße” and from there follow Ludwigshöhstraße 200m in southern direction to Lichtenbergschule. The ride takes about 15 minutes.
You can also take tram line 3 or 7, both trams run from Luisenplatz to Lichtenbergschule. There are various bus connections from the Hauptbahnhof to Luisenplatz.

FOOD
For lunch, there will be several food trucks at campus Lichtenbergschule where you can buy small meals and coffee.
Darmstadt’s tap water is suitable for consumption and so we would like to encourage you to always refill your own drinking bottles or purchased reusable beverage bottles at the taps of the course venues, the festival office or the performance venues. Bottles can also be refilled in the city centre in shops with a blue 💧”Refill Station” sign.
