Düsseldorf French Festival

23rd French Festival 2025

The 23rd edition of the Düsseldorf French Festival in 2025 confirmed the event's status as a fixture in the state capital's international cultural calendar. Over 120 exhibitors from France presented their specialties — wines, champagne, cheese, delicacies, baked goods, textiles — and enlivened Burgplatz, the Town Hall inner courtyard, and the Rhine promenade.

The Tour de Düsseldorf with its classic French cars remained a crowd-puller, live music from French bands graced the stages, and the gastronomic offerings attracted a diverse audience from Düsseldorf, the entire Rhine-Ruhr region, and France. With the 23rd edition, Wellfairs GmbH solidified its position as a competent organizer of the format — and laid the groundwork for the ambitious 24th edition in 2026.
