France meets Freiburg: A summer day full of music, dance, and encounters

On August 1, 2026, the ZMF in Freiburg transforms into a vibrant stage for German-French friendship. From 3:30 PM, FRANKreich & FREIburg invites you to watch, listen, participate, and network – with information booths, workshops, dance, music, and an atmosphere that turns the festival grounds into an open meeting place on a summer evening.

A festival moment with attitude

The France Day relies not only on entertainment but also on encounters: The ZMF sees the event as a cultural counterpoint in a time when borders and divisions often seem louder than shared experiences. Music groups from Besançon and Mulhouse bring sonic color to the grounds and give the day its international touch. ([zmf.de](https://zmf.de/frankreich-freiburg/))

Rhythm, exchange, and open stages

Between information booths, the DE/FR Walking Sketch workshop, and performances by ALEXANDRIE, Piazza Tango, and PANDA DRUMASCHINE, a program emerges with movement and closeness. Particularly appealing: The Fürstenberg stage as an open-air venue creates a direct live atmosphere, while the ZMF garden concludes the evening with an additional musical highlight.

The grounds as a summer backdrop

The ZMF is located about 7 kilometers from Freiburg's city center at Mundenhof, directly next to the Animal Experience Park. The festival grounds offer open spaces, multiple stages, catering options, and accessible entrances to concerts and the site. For getting there, the ZMF recommends traveling by public transport, bicycle, or via the limited parking options at the grounds; designated parking spaces are available for people with disabilities.
