An authentic Swabian experience in Stuttgart

• Official Language: German

Stuttgart is perhaps best known as the home of Porsche, Daimler and Mercedes. This has long made it a place for petrolheads to pay their respects and gaze in awe at almost centuries of automotive history. Never mind Ford – the first automobile came from Stuttgart. However, when you buy or sell Stuttgart event tickets on StubHub, you can be sure that the city is about a lot more than this. It's a European opera and theatre capital, and you'd be hard-pressed to find a city with a stronger suit in symphony orchestras. Rock and pop bands never leave Stuttgart out of their touring schedules, so you'll find plenty of options in those genres, too. Naturally, German traditional music and activities have become perennial events, offering great chances to immerse yourself in German lifestyle.

Stuttgart, home of orchestral legends

A visit to Stuttgart simply would not be the genuine item if you didn't include the globally-acclaimed Stuttgart Radio Symphony Orchestra in your Stuttgart event tickets. Possibly the cultural highlight of the year is the city's Christmas Market, which may sound rather pedestrian, but it has attracted literally millions of visitors every year for a long time. There's something special about this one, so why not spend your next festive season there? And no matter what time of the year you visit, don't forget to nourish yourself with some authentic Swabian cuisine, the local speciality.

Stuttgart's superb venues

Stuttgart has a plethora of well-designed venues with superb acoustics, as you'd expect. Its concert halls and opera houses offer almost pristine experiences of these art forms. Liederhalle Beethovensaal is one such venue, available on StubHub when you book Stuttgart event tickets, while Wagenhallen is also an excellent option. One of the most venerable architectural landmarks in the city has also become a world-famous auditorium, the State Theatre. It's here that you'll find the prestigious State Opera and the Stuttgart Ballet Company. Younger visitors, and the young at heart, need look no further than the Schleyerhalle to catch Europe's biggest rock and pop stars in concert. Sports fans can also go there for handball and volleyball. VfB Stuttgart is the city's most prominent football team, headquartered at Mercedes-Benz Arena. And no quick guide to Stuttgart could possibly omit mention of the city's Aussie Rules football team, which you can watch in action at Eberhard-Bauer-Stadion. We kid you not.

Seeing more of Germany

Stuttgart is very nicely placed for you to be able to visit other major German cities. Three of these are in a similar radius: start by visiting one of the most important European cities in modern history, Nuremberg. Then on to the bustling metropolis of Frankfurt for its book fairs and world-famous motor show. After a night's sleep,treat yourself with a drive to Germany's most famous spa resort, Baden-Baden, using StubHub to find the best places to soak away your cares.
