Profile
The Lankow District Festival celebrated its 28th edition in 2025, making it one of the most traditional district festivals in Schwerin. It is organized by the volunteer District Conference Lankow and brings residents together around the Kieler Straße playground.
Program
Around 30 associations and institutions – kindergartens, senior homes, housing companies, sports clubs – present themselves with stalls, hands-on activities, and demonstrations. Dance groups, choirs, and musical contributions from the district alternate on stage. A flea market, bouncy castle, crafts, face painting, wheelchair obstacle course, cornhole, and wall shooting round off the program. Bratwurst, coffee, and cake provide refreshments.
Local Context
Lankow is a western district of Schwerin, characterized by prefabricated housing estates and a high proportion of social facilities. The district festival is considered an important anchor for neighbourhood management and community work. In 2025, Minister-President Manuela Schwesig and Building Officer Bernd Nottebaum, among others, visited the festival – a sign of the event's significance in the state capital of Mecklenburg-Vorpommern.
Lankow District Festival — edition 2026
