Media & Creative
This is where the music plays - and much more
Home to Bach, Mendelssohn Bartholdy, the Schumanns, Wagner and many other great creative minds of their time, the Leipzig Region remains one of the creative centres of Germany.

With the enormous growth in recent years, the vibrant arts, music, and festival scene have gained even more recognition and internationality, attracting creative people from Germany and worldwide.
No other sector shapes the face of the metropolis and the Leipzig Region as much as the creative industries do.
All forms of media from film and television to literature and music have their firm place in the Leipzig Region today. A colourful potpourri of visual arts along with innovative and resourceful arts and crafts make for a city alive with culture.
As the headquarters of Mitteldeutscher Rundfunk MDR (Central Germany Radio & TV), one of the most important employers in the industry, the Leipzig Region is one of Germany’s top media locations.
