SummerDays Festival

Every year, the SummerDays Festival attracts 24,000 visitors to Arbon and provides special festival moments with its unique location directly on the water, its family atmosphere and its carefully curated program.

Festival Friday - big voices, rock classics and cult factor

Friday promises a line-up full of energy, emotion and musical power: Roxette bring their timeless hits such as "It Must Have Been Love" and "The Look" to Arbon - a highlight for all fans of 80s and 90s pop. Anastacia will give you goosebumps with her unmistakable soul voice and international chart hits, while Gotthard will bring the audience to the boil with their typical rock sound. Nena, one of the most influential voices in German pop history, will create a nostalgic atmosphere with classics such as "99 Luftballons". The Swiss blues rock formation Ellis Mano Band will open the evening with musical depth and a groovy sound.

Crowd favorites and goosebump moments on the Saturday of the festival

Saturday is all about Swiss musical diversity and international singer-songwriter sounds: Hecht guarantee a pure festival atmosphere, sing-along moments and a dancing mood with their energetic live shows and sophisticated production. The exceptional British artist Tom Odell brings international flair to the stage by the lake with his haunting voice and soulful songs. Max Herre & Joy Denalane inspire with soul, rap and poetic lyrics on their comeback tour, while Lo & Leduc get the audience celebrating with dialect hits and likeable charm. Up-and-coming star Valentino Vivace provides a fresh start to the festival Saturday with his mix of funk, pop and Italo vibes.

Two further acts that will complete the program for Festival Saturday 2026 will be announced at a later date.

Free arrival and return journey by public transport

In 2026, all guests will once again travel to and from the festival free of charge by public transport from anywhere in Switzerland. This offer, which has been in place for two years and further strengthens the sustainable festival concept, has increased the proportion of visitors traveling to SummerDays by public transport fivefold.
