Four Stages, Bands, Artists, DJs

Hands-on activities take place in squares and streets, local clubs present themselves at stalls, snack stands and drink vendors provide food and beverages, and a funfair with rides complements the festival grounds.

Parade on Saturday — «Homeland with Many Facets»

The highlight is the parade on Saturday, June 27, at 1:00 PM. Starting at Schkeuditz train station, along Bahnhofstraße to Rathausplatz. Motto 2026: «Homeland with Many Facets» — a theme that offers clubs, kindergartens, schools, social institutions, bands, companies, and engaged groups plenty of creative scope. Two moderation stages along the route will comment on the participating groups, their costumes, and floats. Registration for the parade by March 31, 2026, with the city administration.

Schkeuditz — A City Between Metropolis and Region

Schkeuditz has an unusual location: on the northwestern city border of Leipzig, in close proximity to Leipzig/Halle Airport (one of Europe's largest cargo airports, home of the DHL Hub), and on the A 9. The city combines metropolitan infrastructure with small-town coziness. The Stadtfest is therefore a civic festival and a bridge to Leipzig at the same time — many Leipzig residents travel by S-Bahn (S 5 or S 5X from Leipzig Hbf, 15 minutes journey). Visitors can combine the festival with a visit to the Auwald nature reserve hike, the nearby Schladitzer See (former lignite mining landscape), or an airport tour.
