The festival is kicked off the evening before with a warm-up on the market square. Clubs and local institutions provide a lively town festival with a family atmosphere with stands and hands-on activities.

Early Summer in the City Centre

Crivitz is located in the Ludwigslust-Parchim district in the state of Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, about 25 km east of Schwerin. With just under 4,500 inhabitants, the town is manageable – and that's precisely why the annual Crivitz Children's and Town Festival on the central market square feels so intense: On this weekend, the entire city centre fills with people, stage music, and club stands.

Warm-Up on the Eve

The festival weekend begins on Friday evening with a warm-up on the market square. Live bands or DJs create the atmosphere; the relaxed start functions like a collective toast to the main festival day. Saturday then sees the actual town festival, which lasts from morning until late into the evening.

Town Run, Stage, and Clubs

Programmatically, the festival combines several strands: a town run for amateur runners through the city centre, a children's program with games, hands-on activities, and possibly a bouncy castle, a stage program with music and dance on the market square, a club mile with stands from local clubs and institutions, and in the evening, a disco for adults. The mix of sports, family activities, and a dance evening makes the Crivitz Town Festival an inclusive event – everyone from seniors to schoolchildren finds their place.
