Children's Marksmen's Festival as a Hallmark
The Children's Marksmen's Festival on Friday is a special feature of Wunstorf. With around 800 participating children, it is one of the largest children's marksmen's events in the region. The children parade through the town in uniform, with their own flags and marching bands, and are then invited to their own festival program.
Festival Grounds and Wunstorf
The Wunstorf festival grounds offer a festival tent, shooting range, and amusement rides. The city center with Auestadt, Sigwardskirche, and the Auepromenade is in close proximity. Wunstorf is very well connected to Hanover via the S-Bahn lines S 1 / S 2.
