For the first time, a festival of cabaret will take place on May 24, 2025 from 4 p.m. on the grounds of the Koppelschleuse in Meppen. The Koppelschleuse cultural network will present impressive, fascinating and mysterious performances of contemporary circus, dance and theater. Performances by artists and cultural practitioners from a wide range of fields are also invited. The organizers are particularly pleased to be able to present performances and interactive programme items from local institutions, organizations and initiatives. While mythical creatures, some quiet and mysterious, others loud and dangerous, wander through paths, forests and meadows, people will be balancing on a tightrope in the circus tent. The beer garden becomes a comedy and music stage. Dance and acrobatics enthusiasts will get their money’s worth at the Wunderwiesen. In the Koppelschleuse art center, you can see what has been created in the art school courses. Those who stay until the end of the event can look forward to a sparkling and fiery finale to the day after sunset at 9pm. The main aim of the festival is to celebrate togetherness in Meppen. This includes creating opportunities for encounters and exchanges and once again showing that culture is alive in Meppen: Culture in Meppen is alive, colorful and fun! Location: Park an der Koppelschleuse
Time: 4 – 9 p.m.
Admission: free
