Vitra Campus Summer Festival

We invite you to celebrate the Vitra Campus Summer Festival with family and friends on Saturday, 4 July from 10 am – 6 pm. The event will be held on the lawn around Buckminster Fuller’s Dome and at the VitraHaus. Celebrate with us the opening of the new Water Garden by Bas Smets, be inspired by exhibitions and take part in workshops and join us on tours for all ages – maybe even one of the short guided tours through the Tane Garden House & Khudi Bari?

There will be a vintage sale in the Fire Station and musical entertainment – and for younger visitors a scavenger hunt in the Oudolf Garden, face painting and an outdoor playground in cooperation with “Stapelstein®”. Refreshments will also be provided: pizza from the Bommels food truck by the Fire Station, sweet treats from the crêpe food truck and coffee from the mobile coffee van.

There is no need to register. However, we do reserve the right to cancel the event if the weather is bad. Please visit our social media channels or the News on the Vitra Campus App for the latest information.

If you have any questions, please drop us an e-mail [email protected] or call +4976 21702 3510.
