The Kiel Kulturforum (cultural forum) is run by the office of cultural affairs and is integrated into the premises of the Stadtgalerie in a former post office building with the character of a factory. The KulturForum offers young artists the opportunity to present their work to the public on an exhibition space of around 1000 square metres. The festival audience can also be surprised by unusual sounds in the modern hall of the KulturForum.
