Jecke Meile Leverkusen
2025
Edition 2025 — Finished
Edition 2025 — Jecke Meile
The 2025 premiere of the Jecke Meile was a success: the Schlebusch pedestrian zone was well-attended on both days, and the 22 affiliated carnival societies of the FLK presented their activities, dance groups, princely figures, and traditional artifacts.
The concept – Carnival in summer as an all-year-round club festival – was well-received by Leverkusen's citizens and carnival enthusiasts from beyond the region. In parallel, the traditional 607th Schlebusch Schützenfest took place, bringing together Carnival tradition, Schützenfest tradition, and a folk festival atmosphere in one weekend.
