In the West of Rügen

Dreschvitz is a small municipality in the west of the island of Rügen, located between Bergen auf Rügen and the Ummanz peninsula, in the district of Vorpommern-Rügen (state of Mecklenburg-Vorpommern). With fewer than 1,000 inhabitants, the village is one of the manageable villages in the region — and that's precisely why the annual Dorffest (village festival) is a central meeting point for residents, guests, and former Dreschvitz locals.

The House of Generations

The venue is the village square at the House of Generations — a community meeting place where clubs, seniors, families, and children are active together. The village festival traditionally begins on the afternoon of the first day with an opening ceremony and stage program and continues into the late evening with fireworks.

Program between Brass Band and DRK

The program combines tradition and family celebration: brass band for musical accompaniment, performances by the kindergarten and the school band, pony rides and face painting for the little ones, craft and face painting booths by DRK Rügen-Stralsund, regional gastronomy. The day concludes with fireworks over the village square — the visual highlight of the festival.
