Choose the workshop fee that's right for you!
Every year, Yiddish Summer brings together students and teachers from throughout the world to create a unique learning community in Weimar. We continually improve our fee structure to best serve the financial needs and possibilities of our students. We also want to make it more affordable for you to participate in more than one workshop, so there are built-in discounts for longer stays. In 2026 we offer the following fees, you choose the one that fits you best:

Standard fee:
The standard fee is 85 € per workshop day for the first three days. Starting with the fourth day the fee goes down to 70 €, and from the seventh day onwards, the fee goes down again to 65 €. Your total fee is calculated on the basis of the total number of days you participate in workshops.

Reduced fee:
This fee is for anyone who cannot afford the standard rate. The reduced fee is 70 € per workshop day for the first three days. Starting with the fourth day, the fee goes down to 55 €, and from the seventh day onwards, the fee goes down again to 50 €. Your total fee is calculated on the basis of the total number of days you participate in workshops.

Supporter fee:
Yiddish Summer Weimar participants help each other! This fee offers you the opportunity to help worthy students with limited financial means participate in Yiddish Summer Weimar. Together, three supporter fees are enough to create one scholarship for a deserving student. With a fee structure of 115 € per day, reduced to 100 € from the fourth day and reduced again to 95 € from the seventh day onwards, you are doing a good deed and directly helping your fellow workshop participants!

Under the age of 18:
For everyone under the age of 18, we offer a special rate of only 35 € per workshop day for the first three days. Starting with the fourth day, the fee goes down to 20 €, and from the seventh day onwards, the fee goes down again to 15 €.
