The venue: historically significant, centrally located, and atmospheric
The Brunnenhof in the Zeughaus is located in the heart of Augsburg at Zeugplatz 4, combining a historic setting with an open-air concert experience. The city of Augsburg recommends public transportation, bicycles, or e-scooters for arriving, as the city center has limited parking options. From the main train station, the city zone can be easily reached, and tram and bus lines lead within a few minutes to the vicinity of the venue.
