Editorial policy

Festivals in Deutschland lists festivals, folk festivals and town fairs in Germany that are open to the public. Two of us keep the listings up to date.

Who does what

Valentin Contard writes the listings. He checks the dates of each edition and reviews some of the corrections you send us. Christophe Contard, editor-in-chief, then goes over every listing: he reviews, corrects and approves it before it goes live. You will find both of them on our About page.

What we list

Any festive event held in Germany that the public can attend. Private parties do not belong here.

Where the information comes from

Official sources first: the organizer's website or social pages, the town or municipality, the district, the tourist information office. Visitors and organizers add to it too, through the change suggestion on every listing.

Dates

Each edition is checked against an official source. Until one has confirmed it, the listing says so in a notice. In that case, check with the organizer before you set off.

Corrections and errors

Every listing lets you suggest a change. We read each suggestion before anything changes on the site. A corrected listing gets a new update date: look at the bottom of the page. For an urgent error, write to us from the Contact page.

Publisher

The site is published by Christophe Contard, sole proprietor. The details are in the legal notice.
