Every two years, the Danube Office Ulm/Neu-Ulm invites you to the International Danube Festival. For ten days, there is hustle and bustle on both sides of the Danube bank when international artists and guests come together at the festival of encounters from all countries along the Danube.
The international cultural programme offers a sophisticated mix of different artistic genres - whether music, dance, literature or exhibitions, the Danube countries present themselves with their cultural ambassadors.
The centrepiece is the Danube Countries Market. It reflects the basic idea of the International Danube Festival to convey the diversity of cultures, forms of music and dance as well as lifestyles along the Danube. Here, visitors can experience genuine arts and crafts, authentic music - both modern and traditional - and culinary specialities from the various countries and regions. A colourful family programme will delight young and old alike.
The International Danube Festival is a showcase for the international Danube partnership and cultural encounters. The focus is on unity in diversity, the idea of cultural cooperation in Europe and the strengthening of cohesion in the Danube region.
