StuStaCulum (Acronym for StudentenStadt-SpectaCulum) is an annual theatre festival at the Studentenstadt in Munich, Germany, organized by student volunteers who live in the Studentenstadt.
The festival began in 1989, though was cancelled in 2020 and 2021 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[1][2]
Description
[edit]StuStaCulum began as a small festival with two bands and twelve theatre groups for the 25th anniversary of Studentenstadt, developing into a festival with over 100 scheduled events and 30,000 visitors.[3] These events range from concerts to theater performances to rugby and football tournaments. The festival also includes various food and drink trucks and tents.
Since 2003, StuStaCulum has collaborated with GARNIX and TUNIX, festivals run by students from the Technical University of Munich, and (since 2010) the Uni-Sommerfest (University Summer Festival) of Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich. The three festivals are promoted together under the motto "Triple Live Summer". The performers do not receive payments and the organizers also operate on an unpaid basis.[4]
Over 70 bands were announced for the 2022 festival.[5]
In 2023, the festival introduced "StuStaPay", the "erste Open-Source-Festival-Bezahlsystem" (first open source festival payment system).[6]
