The Accordion Festival brings orchestras, ensembles and up-and-coming talents to the Estrel.
The Accordion Festival features musicians from all over Germany, who spend two days celebrating the Instrument of the Year 2026 in all its forms. Alongside established musicians, up-and-coming talents also take the stage. In 2026, the Accordion Festival will be held in Berlin for the ninth time.
The program includes concerts, workshops, panel discussions and an exhibition centered on the instrument. The festival is complemented by a family program featuring hands-on activities and the concurrent National Youth Accordion Festival.
