Nürnberg Digital Festival, known as NUEDIGITAL, is a city-wide technology festival in Nuremberg. Its programme is largely put together by the local community, alongside partners such as the city, the chamber of commerce and the Technische Hochschule Nürnberg. It draws developers, founders, decision-makers and members of the public with an interest in technology. Its topic tracks run from new ways of working to deep tech. The 2027 edition is scheduled from 14 to 24 June. That makes it one of the longer tech festivals in Germany, closer to a season of events than a single conference. Sessions range from webinars and meetups to full conferences, so the festival combines in-person and online formats. According to the organisers, most events are free to attend. A notable feature of 2027 is that the RoboCup World Championship will be held in Nuremberg as part of the festival. Visitors can choose from talks and hands-on sessions, such as drone programming, robotics demonstrations and behind-the-scenes looks at local tech projects. Returning formats such as the AI Camp and Agency Day are planned. By spreading hundreds of events across the city, the festival gives the Franconian tech scene a shared annual stage.
Nürnberg Digital Festival 2027 takes place June 14–24, 2027 in Nürnberg, Germany.
Nürnberg Digital Festival 2027 is a hybrid event — you can attend on-site or join remotely.

The festival spreads across Nuremberg for eleven days in mid-June, running in venues scattered through the city rather than a single hall - which means the walk between sessions is part of the programme. Franconia in June is warm and long-lit, around 23C, with the old town's sandstone and half-timbering at its best. The Altstadt is compact and encircled by intact medieval walls, so most festival locations are within twenty minutes of each other on foot.
Nuremberg Airport (NUE) sits unusually close to the centre - the U2 U-Bahn runs from the terminal to the Hauptbahnhof in about 12 minutes. Munich (MUC) is the larger hub, with ICE trains reaching Nuremberg in roughly 70 minutes, and Frankfurt is around two hours by rail. Within the city the U-Bahn, trams and a very walkable old town cover everything; a day ticket is usually better value than singles.

German networks cover the city well and festival venues generally offer wifi. An eSIM arranged before travel is the simplest route for non-EU delegates, who do not benefit from EU roaming rules. Set up an eSIM with Airalo before you board and you're online the moment you land.
Kaiserburg. The imperial castle on the sandstone ridge above the old town, with the Sinwell Tower, the deep well and a view across the rooftops. Twenty minutes uphill from the centre and the obvious orientation point on a first evening. Ninety minutes including the tower climb. Tickets on Tiqets →
Documentation Centre Nazi Party Rally Grounds. The museum built into Speer's unfinished congress hall, covering the rallies and the regime's use of the city, followed by the grounds themselves at Zeppelinfeld. Sober and thoroughly done. Allow three hours including the walk; it is a tram ride southeast of the centre.
Albrecht Durer's House. The artist's half-timbered home near the castle, restored with period workshops and printing demonstrations. Small, specific and quickly seen. An hour, and it combines naturally with the castle on the same climb through the upper town. Tickets on Tiqets →
Altstadt and Handwerkerhof. The walled old town itself - Hauptmarkt, the Schoner Brunnen fountain, the Pegnitz bridges and the craftsmen's courtyard by the Konigstor. Best simply walked in the long June evening, with a stop for Nuremberg bratwurst. Two hours at an unhurried pace.
How do I get in from the airport?
The U2 U-Bahn line runs from Nuremberg Airport to the Hauptbahnhof in about 12 minutes, one of the shortest airport transfers in Germany.
Is the festival in one venue?
No - it runs across many locations in the city over eleven days. The old town is compact enough that most are within a twenty-minute walk or a short tram ride.
What is the weather like in mid-June?
Warm and long-lit, around 23C, with daylight until roughly 21:30. Occasional summer thunderstorms are possible.
