Four days of media art magic: lab.30 conquers Augsburg
lab.30 transforms Augsburg into a vibrant media art lab from October 29 to November 1, 2026. At the cultural center abraxas, digital experiments, sound art, and interactive installations meet a curious audience – from industry insiders to families. Festival atmosphere, community feeling, and an intense multi-day experience make this date a must.
Art, Sound, Concerts: The heart beats at the cultural center abraxas
Between the main stage and the side stage unfolds a curated lineup of exhibitions, performances, and experimental concerts. The open-air acoustics intentionally yield to the intimate indoor experience: precise sound, immersive visuals, and close encounters with artists. Workshops and artist talks open additional windows into the practice of media artists.
Festival organization with an eye for detail
Initiated by the cultural office of the city of Augsburg in the early 2000s, the media art festival has developed into a fixed entity. Precise festival organization, clearly structured processes, and accessible mediation make complex technologies tangible. Tickets are fairly priced – from afternoon tickets to the 4-day pass – and include exhibitions as well as concerts.
A multi-day experience for all: Family-friendly and approachable
Interactive exhibits, family-friendly afternoons, guided tours, and a festival crew that gladly explains: lab.30 opens media art for all generations. Those wanting to savor the festival atmosphere should plan for several days – dialogues, favorite works, and spontaneous concert moments unfold.
Travel, public transport, and accessibility
The festival center is located at Sommestraße 30, 86156 Augsburg. The journey is conveniently made by bus (line 35, stop at cultural center abraxas), supplemented by line 32 as well as tram 2 to St. Thaddeus. Parking options are limited at the venue. Many areas are barrier-free; the team on-site provides assistance if needed.
Tickets and prices – fair and transparent
Evening tickets, family tickets, and the 4-day pass cover the exhibition and concert program. Discounts apply to students, students, and people with disabilities; children up to 5 years free. Cultural social ticket at the festival box office subject to availability.
Conclusion: Four days that shift perspectives: Media art to touch, sound adventures on stage, and a community that researches, marvels, and celebrates together. Those who want to experience innovation sensually should secure dates and tickets now – the multi-day experience is worth it.
