Celebrate with the head of state: In September, the Citizens' Festival takes place at the official residence of the Federal President in Berlin.
The focus of the festival is on initiatives, organizations and companies that present their voluntary work. In addition, there will be a children's and youth program, live music, theater performances, roundtable discussions and sports activities, as well as tours of Bellevue Palace.
On Saturday, a diverse music and entertainment program awaits the guests. The Federal President will take part in a stage discussion. On Friday, President Steinmeier will extend a personal invitation to thank particularly committed citizens from all over Germany who are tackling social challenges and helping others.
A free ticket is required to participate in the Bürgerfest. For security reasons, people and bag checks will be carried out. Waiting times at the entrance are to be expected. It is requested not to bring large pieces of luggage. People with disabilities will be given easier access to the Bürgerfest. Dogs (except guide dogs for the blind) are not allowed. There is also no parking available on site. Visitors are advised to arrive by public transport.
