KG Altenkirchen – Children's Carnival in the Marquee

The KG Altenkirchen Children's Carnival is a firm fixture in Altenkirchen's carnival programme. It takes place on the Saturday of the carnival days in the marquee at Weyerdamm and complements the KG's major events with an item specifically designed for families and children.

Child-Friendly Carnival Experience

Carnival for children is more than just a scaled-down hall session. It requires its own pace, its own themes, its own show acts. Over the years, the KG Altenkirchen has developed its own concept for this: shorter contributions, more interactive elements, many dance performances, a visible stage, and a dense but not overloaded schedule.

Dance Groups in Focus

The KG Altenkirchen's own children's and youth dance groups play the leading role. They perform rehearsed dances, present solo dancers (Mariechentanz) and dance formations, and get the hall roaring. Friendly dance groups from the Altenkirchen district are regular guests, showcasing a range across the Westerwald's club landscape.

Marquee Atmosphere

The marquee at Weyerdamm offers the necessary space for a family event with many visitors. The stage, dance floor, seating, and catering are specially adapted to the needs of families: non-alcoholic drinks, child-friendly food, and enough space for prams.

Meeting Point for Young Families

Beyond its purely carnival function, the Children's Carnival fulfils an important social role: it brings young families together, allows children to discover their enthusiasm for carnival, and thus secures the next generation for a tradition deeply rooted in the Westerwald.
