The Jazz Summer Night, Sommer Nacht, traditionally takes place in Neuss each year on the last Friday evening of the summer holidays. The concert attracts a huge following from near and far  and the organisers have traditionally managed to keep entrance free of charge year after year.

Marking the national annual national Intercultural Week, Interkulturelle Woche, activities to advance harmony have also been taking place in Neuss for several years. The city welcomes expats and makes effort to integrate all foreigners that have moved to Neuss. The event commences this year in the town hall with a concert and an accompanying exhibition and end with an open invitation to visit the local mosque.

The city flea market, Citytrödelmarkt, in Neuss takes place on two occasions each year. The first is in May on Mothering Sunday, the second on a Sunday in September. Stands can be found all along the high street and around Markt. The event has a long standing tradition and offers a terrific atmosphere for lovers of the hunt. Since a high proportion of  those presenting their wares are private individuals, there are potentially great buys available to all.
