Gasteig München GmbHCulture for Munich

Led by Managing Director Stephanie Jenke, Gasteig München GmbH is responsible for operating all Gasteig locations. As a subsidiary and municipal service company of the City of Munich, we fulfil important management functions; we are responsible for managing all the facilities and events.

The facility management department

Gasteig München GmbH is responsible for the rental of all of the Gasteig’s buildings, which were designed primarily to house the Gasteig’s various resident institutes. The responsibilities of Gasteig München GmbH include facility management, building and property management, and building maintenance.

The event management department

Gasteig München GmbH is responsible for renting out the halls and spaces in the Gasteig and for the performances that take place there. We have creative freedom to develop strategies for our long-term use, as well as to host our own events and co-productions. In short, we are responsible for ensuring that the capacity and resources of the Gasteig are used to best effect.

Although most events taking place at the Gasteig are external productions, there are some programme highlights throughout the year that we put on ourselves. Our aim is to open our doors wide and invite people of all ages and backgrounds to visit the Gasteig and enjoy what we have in store. Our wide range of events offer a great deal of fun and entertainment and are usually free to attend.

Hello future! – our guiding principles at Gasteig München GmbH

We are turning the Gasteig into one of the world’s leading cultural institutions.

Striving to create an inspiring space in which culture can be experienced by everyone, we offer artists and event organisers the ideal environment and conditions for their events. We are always open to new and innovative formats and projects that enrich our programme and make the arts more accessible. By networking with other cultural institutions throughout the world, we promote the exchange of ideas and extend the reach of projects on a global scale.

We are an active player in culture and the arts, creating a vibrant meeting place that brings together people from diverse backgrounds and inspiring them through shared cultural experiences.

We are creating a platform for creative exchange at the highest levels of quality and professionalism. Among our key objectives are inclusion and sustainability, which we incorporate in our activities to forge a culture of inclusiveness while assuming responsibility for our shared future.

We foster open-mindedness, tolerance and respect, and aim to strengthen social cohesion. We stand up for democracy and resolutely oppose socially divisive trends.

We see the Gasteig as an open space, accessible for everyone – a platform for constructive discourse that promotes mutual understanding and reflects the diversity of perspectives in our society.

Our work shows that education and the arts bring people together and make the world a better place.
