3rd International Carousel Festival 2025

From August 15 to 17, the rear part of the Kulturpark am Schlachthof will be transformed into an enchanting world full of carousel magic for the third time. Admission is free!

An ornate metal carousel can be seen on a poster. The words "Carousel Festival" are written on it.

Ten extraordinary carousels from France, Switzerland and Germany, a steam train, international street theater and much more transform the Kulturpark am Schlachthof into an extraordinary place - not just for families with children!

One of the many highlights is an eleven-meter-high multi-level carousel. Also included: a carousel stage, tower building, cloud travel, adventure land, tailoring, the sound instrument meadow, the popular "KlötzchenWelt", the Kaosclown, giant soap bubbles, escaped carousel animals, magicians, robots and, of course, lots of culinary delights such as chips and candy floss.
