They are an integral part of the events calendar: The traditional festivals of the Kinderregion. Whether it is a folk festival, a music, fairytale or film festival – there is something for everyone. And even the little ones can join in.

Alongside the grown-ups or in designated children’s areas, kids travel to magical worlds or distant lands, dance, play, laugh, read, learn, award prizes and get creative in age-appropriate workshops. The selection is as colourful as the atmosphere, which makes for unforgettable moments for all the family.
