Beim BENZ - The Hofbräu tent

Welcome to ‘Beim BENZ - Das Hofbräu Zelt’ - tradition, quality and genuine hospitality at the Cannstatter Volksfest!

We're not just about partying - we're about feeling the atmosphere. The pulsating heart of our marquee: the central stage - it offers artists & guests an impressive 360-degree view and creates a completely new stage experience in the marquee with the largest central aisle at the Cannstatter Wasen. Between freshly tapped Hofbräu beer, regional cuisine with the “Taste the South” seal and genuine togetherness, something is created that cannot be planned: this moment!

Experience our BENZ Bar - fine drinks, good conversation and the original currywurst from the “Brunnenwirt” cult snack bar.

Our marquee is a meeting place for young and old, for connoisseurs and club members, for lunch guests and after-work rounds. This is the place to sway, laugh and celebrate - and not just on our special days such as VfB Day, the Landpartie or Club Tuesday. Festival host Marcel Benz and his team are passionate about making everyone feel welcome.

On October 6, 2025, SWR will be broadcasting live in the marquee - because an atmosphere like this simply has to be seen and heard.
