Experience culture, music and community under the motto ‘Stronger together’
From 14 to 15 June, the banks of the river Trave around the Musik und Kongresshalle (MuK) will be transformed into a vibrant festival area. Expect information, entertainment, lively discussions, music and, above all, the chance to connect what truly belongs together. The Fehmarnbelt region is brimming with energy, creativity and opportunity, and this weekend is your chance to experience it all.
Whether you’re looking to unwind, explore something new or get involved, there’s something for everyone. Be inspired by creative minds, experience the cultural exchange between Germany and Scandinavia, and feel what it means to be stronger together. We can’t wait to welcome you!

The heart of the festival: the floating stage on a pontoon! Here, the future of the Fehmarnbelt region takes centre stage, with thought-provoking panel discussions and distinguished guests from politics and society. In the afternoon, local choirs and singer-songwriters will give you goosebumps, setting the scene for an electrifying evening as the main acts take over and rock the stage.

And, of course, no festival would be complete without a taste of German-Danish cuisine — expect fish rolls and other Nordic specialities. At the heart of the festival, a large bar right in front of the main stage invites you to take a break, grab a drink, and soak up the atmosphere with the best view of the action.
