What's happening in January 2026? - Events in Leipzig
Welcome to January, the most contradictory of all months. On the one hand, we're full of New Year's resolutions: get out more, experience something new more often, finally get off the couch. On the other hand, it's dark, cold and the motivation seems to have gotten stuck somewhere in the past year - probably under a mountain of cookie crumbs 🍪 Your vitamin D store? Empty. Your bank account after the holidays? Probably too 💸 And while you're wondering how the hell the Christmas tree lost so many needles, everyday life has long since got you back on track.
And then there are those good intentions: Scroll less, experience more. Go out more, sit on the edge of the sofa less. Whether the gym becomes a second home or you discover the cinema, concert hall or Leipzig's charming bars as your new playground - January is your chance to spice up the dull days 🎉 Because January has its very own charm. It's the time when you can make the best memories - often completely unexpected ✨ The first month of the year gives you the chance to lay the foundations for 12 great months ahead. And what better way to bridge the cold season than Leipzig's packed calendar of events?
Because let's get real: January is the boss enemy of the months. But you have the best tools to defeat it: Leipzig. The city never sleeps - not even in this frosty time of year ❄️ From inspiring cultural events and exuberant party nights to surprising insider tips, Leipzig has everything you need to turn a gray January into a month full of memories 🎶
So grab your scarf, hat and a big dose of curiosity - because January can be so much more than the gloomy start of a new year. Leipzig is waiting for you, and who knows? Maybe you'll find just that little bit of magic here to sweeten the start of the new year 🪄. Well then - let's go!
