Elbhangfest 2025: Ruard for security requirements - that's how it goes!
Pillnitz, Deutschland - The 32nd Elbe slope festival, which will take place from June 27th to 29th, 2025, faces a major challenge. The motto of this year's festival is "the faith and the grape", and the celebrations are part of the anniversary events for the 300th birthday of the vineyard church in Pillnitz. The festival runs along the picturesque Pillnitz country road from leafst to Pillnitz and attracts with a varied program.
But it seems, the organizers of the Elbe Hang Festival have a stony path in front of them. The city has published requirements for terrorist protection shortly before the event, which can hardly be bumped into by the non -profit association. The financial measures for the security measures are not to be mastered for the association. [Saxony] reports that the city will pass the costs for the necessary "terrorist" road closure, which is 12,000 euros, to the association.
criticism of urban requirements
The requirements that came into force around eight weeks before the festival include the securing of the access routes with terrorist barriers and constant controls for incoming vehicles. These measures that lead to vehicles that are not allowed to enter the festival site during the events were criticized by the organizers as unreasonable. So the Pillnitzer Landstrasse, which is normally closed to the festival, remains open this year. This means that the organizers have to do without a significant restriction to ensure the safety of visitors.
Despite the challenges, there are bright spots. Around 250 artists are expected at 80 different venues, with 71 of them taking place in private gardens or on church properties. The Pillnitz Schlosspark also opens for the guests for the first time until 10 p.m. For only 10 euros, supporters of the festival can acquire a bracelet that enables free participation in the festival.
a colorful program for everyone
The program of the Elbe Hangfest is diverse and includes concerts, a wine village, craftsman markets and a German premiere of the "Moiré Experience". Particularly noteworthy are the appearances of the band "La fanfarria del Capitan" and the final concert in the vineyard church. With more than 170 individual events at 68 venues, the guests are offered an exciting experience. The highlight of the festival is a circular hiking trail with 25 stations, which indicates the history of the vineyard church and contains interactive children's puzzles.
