About Pop x Villa Berg – Yoga, Random Dance, Ambient Set, Svumato und Grace Ives

Villa Berg is saying it loud and clear this year: Hello About Pop! Between trees, beats and the best views, the park will become a stage - and we're really looking forward to it.

Come along, roll out your yoga mat, dance freely or just let yourself drift:

10:30 - 11:30 I Yoga in the park with Yoga Thrive

12:00 - 15:00 I Random Dance Stuttgart

Free space instead of choreography: at Random Dance Stuttgart as part of About Pop, the park at Villa Berg becomes an open dance floor. Without guidelines, but with a lot of feeling for music, movement and togetherness, a spontaneous, shared moment is created - just come, dance along or watch and let yourself drift.

15:30 - 17:00 I Ambient Live Set with Schranz Francesco

Under his former moniker Swami Wolfgang Shanti Schuster, Schranz Francesco presents a sound bath-like ambient set at the interface with dub. Inspired by Lee Perry's motto "The Force of Music's Healing Power - Music like Shower", the result is an immersive sound between calm and depth. Let's hope it stays dry.

17:30 - 18:00 I Svumato

Svumato is a multi-instrumentalist and singer from Stuttgart. He makes lo-fi funk and his music references jazz fusion, indie, wave & funk. The creation process is characterized by experimental grooves and a slightly de- and reconstructing attitude of "whatever happens".

18:15 - 19:00 I Grace Ives

Graces Ives is a New York-based musician and producer whose mix of indie pop, lo-fi and synth sounds oscillates between intimacy and club energy. Having grown up in a creative environment, she has developed a songwriting language that combines radical honesty with a fine feel for everyday details.
Grace Ives usually performs live alone on stage - with keys, drum machine and a direct line to the audience. Her shows are minimalist but intense: somewhere between bedroom pop and night-time dancefloor, carried by a presence that is both vulnerable and self-assured. She has a brand new album with her for her shows in 2026.

Everything outside, everything open, everything Villa Berg.
