Mit-mach-Sommerfest Goethepark Heringsdorf

Creative Midsummer Festival in Goethepark

The Mit-mach-Sommerfest is one of the most unusual festival formats on Usedom Island: instead of a classic folk festival atmosphere, the focus is on creative workshops and hands-on activities for families. The venue is the spacious Goethepark in Heringsdorf at Friedenstraße 4 – a central green meeting point in the seaside resort.

The workshop program includes numerous hands-on stations:

• ColorBike: Acrylic paint on canvas using a centrifugal technique (EUR 20, ages 5+)

• Jewelry from Baltic Sea Finds: accessories from beach materials (EUR 2–10, ages 10+)

• Relax Yoga (EUR 10, Saturday only): 2:30 PM, 4:00 PM, and 5:30 PM, ages 12+, max. 6 participants

Live Music and Walk-about Acts

Alongside the workshops, the stage program and walk-about acts create a festive atmosphere:

• Saturday: Cheerleader performances, walk-about acts, bingo, "Speed Cups XXL", quiz games, live soul and funk band
• Sunday: Children's performances, tree walk-about act, gaming tournaments, 90s pop unplugged

Midsummer on the Baltic Sea

The festival takes place around June 21st, the longest day of the year – a traditionally symbolic date in Northern Europe. In Goethepark, creativity, movement, and encounters are the focus in this special atmosphere. The municipality of Ostseebad Heringsdorf belongs to the Vorpommern-Greifswald district.
