Karneval for a Good Cause
The organizer is the Festkomitee Langenfelder Karneval e.V. (Margarethenstr. 27, Langenfeld). The proceeds from the festival go towards promoting Langenfeld Karneval and its clubs – BÜTZ & BEATS is therefore not only the biggest Rhineland summer party but also one of the most important sources of income for local Karneval culture.
Langenfeld in the Rhineland
Langenfeld (Rhineland), with almost 60,000 inhabitants, is located in the Mettmann district, directly on the Rhine and the A3 motorway between Cologne and Düsseldorf. Its central location makes the festival a meeting point for Karneval enthusiasts from Cologne, Düsseldorf, the Bergisches Land, and the Lower Rhine – anyone who loves Kölsche music and wants to spend their summer with "Stadt mit K" is in the right place.
