Musical variety, culinary delights - and all of that virtually free of charge: During the Deichstadtfest, Neuwied's Luisenplatz turns into a colourful festival mile, a popular meeting place for young and old, for Neuwied's "Schärjer" and their guests from all over the region. The makers of the first Deichstadtfest were not aware that they were establishing a tradition. In November 1979, in the presence of high-ranking representatives from politics and business, they initially "only" wanted to celebrate the opening of the completely redesigned Luisenplatz - with an extensive programme, of course. This was so well received by locals and visitors alike that the wish for a regularly recurring festival was quickly formulated. The Deichstadtfest was born - and still inspires tens of thousands every year. The main attraction is the music. On several stages, the organisers present a broad spectrum of genres, a bouquet of the most diverse sounds. These are provided by top-class musicians from Germany and abroad. They will be active in Neuwied's city centre for around 100 hours, spreading party spirit and serving up hits, pop and rock. Welcome to the party.
