Grand season opening of the harbor gastronomy on May 1st
The Stadthafen Saisoneröffnungsparty is the traditional start to summer at Rostock's Stadthafen. Every May 1st, the outdoor gastronomy on the quay celebrates its season opening with a big party — a day when terraces and event areas along the harbor basin fill with life again.
The DJs of the Kontrast-Kollektiv provide the right sound, playing their sets on the event areas by the quay. The party is colorful, exuberant, and relaxed at the same time — drinks and snacks are included, and admission is free.
The season opening is not just a party for adults: from 12 p.m., there is a family-friendly program with a bouncy castle, game stations, and face painting. Environmental education is also not neglected — the initiative »Plastikfreie Stadt« (Plastic-Free City) is present with activities. This makes May 1st in Stadthafen a family day.
