A festival for all the senses and for everyone – the 2025 Festival of Encounters invites you to a day full of music, dance and fashion. On stage and in the audience, people from different backgrounds, age groups and cultures come together. The program reflects this colorful mix: from an energetic youth band to international dance groups and a colorful fashion show, to Afghan dance music and poetic sounds from Iran.
In the afternoon and evening, local up-and-coming artists will take the stage, followed by renowned acts. Highlights include Simon Mayer’s dance floor performance, the rousing rhythms of the Kitole Kenda & Oya Band and a concert by Yasmo & die Klangkantine. We will celebrate the finale together with DJanes until late into the night.
