Sommerfest

Everyone welcome – bring your friends and family!
Following the great success of last year's event, we are excited to bring our Sommerfest back to Auckland. Join us for a relaxed day celebrating German language, culture, and community. Bring your picnic blanket and enjoy a fun-filled day for all ages.
The Goethe-Institut offers German courses for children, teenagers, and adults in Auckland. Our Sommerfest is a wonderful opportunity to discover the German language, connect with others, and experience a little bit of Germany right here in Aotearoa New Zealand.
You can find our full Sommerfest programme here soon.
