Exciting News: KCA English Camps Are Coming to Leipzig in Summer 2027!

We are thrilled to announce that Kids Camp America is officially expanding to one of Germany’s most vibrant, creative, and dynamic cities! Starting in Summer 2027, young learners can join us for unforgettable English language immersion right in Leipzig and nearby Markkleeberg.

Whether your camper is looking to build speaking confidence, make new friends, or jump into outdoor adventures, our upcoming Leipzig camps offer the perfect mix of learning and summer fun.

Two Amazing Ways to Experience Camp

We are launching two camp formats to fit every family’s needs:

• Leipzig English Day Summer Camp 2027 (Ages 9–16): Running daily from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM, this option combines morning language lessons with action-packed afternoon activities, games, and excursions. It’s ideal for campers who want the full camp experience while returning home each evening.
• Leipzig English Overnight Summer Camp 2027 (Ages 9–16): For the complete summer-camp tradition, campers stay together at the youth hostel. Beyond daytime activities, overnight campers enjoy classic evening events like campfires, movie nights, talent shows, and discos.

What to Expect: City Exploration & Lake Adventures

Our summer program is split across two incredible locations:

• Week 1 – Leipzig City Adventure: Based at Jugendherberge Leipzig, campers will explore the culture and history of the city. Highlights include excursions to local attractions like the Zoo Leipzig, laser tag arenas, and escape rooms—all while practicing English in real-world settings.
• Weeks 2 to 6 – Markkleeberger See Outdoor Experience: Moving to the new Jugendherberge Markkleeberg right on the lake, the focus shifts to outdoor adventure. Campers can dive into swimming, stand-up paddleboarding, kayaking, beach games, and high-energy water sports at the nearby Kanupark Markkleeberg.

Learn English Naturally

At Kids Camp America, we believe language learning happens best through action and immersion. Campers are placed in small, age-appropriate groups led by native English speakers and experienced teachers. English isn’t just taught in a classroom—it’s spoken on the sports field, during meals, and throughout every adventure.

Registration is opening soon! Head over to our English Camps Leipzig page to learn more about the schedule and secure your child’s spot for Summer 2027.
