Description

DAS FEST has many features and is anything but a boring, normal pop festival. While the names of the top acts have increasingly become more attracting and fine-sounding, the regional scene provides about half of the concerts for the music stage.

Since 1991, there has been a separate stage for theater. Furthermore, there is a children’s playground for the little ones, and only a short distance away the youth stage with Hip Hop and Techno events has been set up.

The programme’s variety is reflected in the diversity of the visitors. There are no barriers between generations at DAS FEST, here you can take helpfulness and friendliness for granted. DAS FEST preserved its openness in all directions over the years.

A crowded outdoor setting with people lounging and standing around; a man in a white hat and glasses reclines with eyes closed on a makeshift bed in the forefront, next to a seated woman wearing a visor and sunglasses. There's a casual, sunny atmosphere.
