Village Festival with Community Spirit

The Altenpleen Village Festival takes place annually in midsummer in the municipality of Altenpleen. It is the most important social event for the small community of around 1,200 inhabitants, bringing together locals and guests from the surrounding villages of Klausdorf, Groß Mohrdorf, Kramerhof, and the Hanseatic city of Stralsund.

Program

The two-day festival traditionally includes live music on the festival stage, dance evenings, fairground rides such as carousels and games of chance, market stalls with crafts and regional specialties, and a varied program for families with children. The organizers are the municipality of Altenpleen and the company HELLCON Veranstaltungstechnik, which is responsible for the stage and sound system.

Regional Context

Altenpleen is located in the Vorpommern-Rügen district (Mecklenburg-Vorpommern) on the mainland shore of the Strelasund, opposite the island of Rügen and in close proximity to the UNESCO World Heritage city of Stralsund. The rural location at the transition between the mainland and the island shapes the character of the festival: it is honest, down-to-earth, and deeply rooted in the tradition of Vorpommern village life.
