Summer Evening with Brass Music in the Maltesergarten: Andreas Königsberger and His Musicians Bring Amberg to Life
When the Maltesergarten is bathed in warm evening light in August, a special live atmosphere emerges, which has characterized the Amberg Sunday Serenades for years. On August 16, 2026, at 19:00, the open-air stage in the green invites you to a free concert evening with Andreas Königsberger and his musicians – lively, approachable, and entirely focused on traditional brass music.
A Concert Format with Summer Flair
The Sunday Serenades are among the fixed cultural moments in the Amberg summer. The Cultural Department of the City of Amberg organizes the series in the Maltesergarten, where park idyll and music enjoyment come together directly. The concert experience for visitors does not rely on large show effects but rather on sound colors, acoustics, and the atmosphere among the audience in the open air.
Brass Music with Experience and Precision
Andreas Königsberger and his musicians perform with a broad repertoire and a well-established profile. The ensemble describes itself as consisting of around 60 musicians with different formations – from quintets to Egerländer formations. Performances at Hofbräuhaus Munich, Erlangen Bergkirchweih, Hirschgarten, and Oidn Wiesn underline their experience on large as well as atmospherically dense stages. Additionally, there is a commitment to musical precision, independent arrangements, and a powerful sound that works both unamplified in the beer garden and with professional sound reinforcement.
Free Admission, Open Access, Real Summer Feel
Admission is free, making the serenade especially accessible and opening the format to a wide audience. This mix of low-threshold access and carefully curated music program shapes the character of the evening. In good weather, a relaxed, almost Mediterranean concert feeling arises in the Maltesergarten; in case of rain, the event is canceled without replacement according to the City of Amberg.
Getting There, Parking, and Location
The Maltesergarten is located on Seminargasse in 92224 Amberg. For those arriving by car, the parking garage at Ziegeltor is recommended, located according to the municipal utilities of Amberg at Pfalzgrafenring 3 and only about 500 meters from the marketplace. Those coming by public transport can also reach the Amberg old town easily; accessible parking spaces are available in the old town for visitors with disabilities.
Why the Evening is Worth It
This concert combines traditional brass music, summery lightness, and the special closeness of an open-air evening in the park. If you want to experience Amberg from its musically relaxed side, this is the perfect format: a free, lively live experience with regional roots and a lot of musical warmth. An evening that does not need to be loud to leave a lasting impression – experiencing it live is worthwhile.
