Waagfesta 2025 – Third Edition
On Saturday, October 4, the Waag Association invites the city to the third edition of Waagfesta: a full day of concerts, live sets, performances, and games that will bring to life the historic halls of Casa della Pesa and the open-air space of Kornplatz.
From 10:00 to 23:30, the square becomes one big stage:
- Concerts & live sets: Manida, Arno Dejaco & Magdalena Schwärzer (TUITATA), Frim Fram Sauce, Homeless Band
- DJ sets: Pyson DJ and special guests
- Silent Disco (in collaboration with BeYoung) to end the day on a high note
- Guided tours & artistic performances: special guided tours, surprise flash mobs from the windows of Casa della Pesa
- Exhibitions & workshops: art exhibitions (in collaboration with Euregio), video games, creative workshops
- Activities for all ages: treasure hunt, interactive stations, chill-out and meeting areas
Waagfesta is an open invitation to explore the historic Casa della Pesa in a new and playful way – where culture, creativity, and sound experimentation meet.
