A Festival for Enjoyment, Friendship, and Summer Atmosphere in Cottbus
On June 20, 2026, a vibrant multi-day feeling will take shape at the Klosterplatz: The second German-Polish Citizens' Festival connects wine, culinary experiences, and city partnerships into an open meeting fest in the heart of Cottbus' old town. The official event calendar describes the format as a celebration of friendship and cultural diversity with regional wines, specialties, and music from both countries.

Enjoyment Meets Festival Atmosphere
Entering the Klosterplatz, one immediately senses this special blend of city festival, culinary discovery, and relaxed open-air character. Among historical walls, short distances, and an open square feeling, a meeting point develops for families, friend circles, and connoisseurs who love wine, exchange, and a summery festival atmosphere.

German-Polish Culture as the Heart
The citizens' festival thrives on its idea: Cottbus/Chóśebuz and Zielona Góra demonstrate their partnership not as a formality, but as an experiential sense of community. The premiere in 2025 highlighted this connection and focused on regional products, cross-border encounters, and musical accompaniment from both countries.

Why This Festival Excites
The charm lies in the combination of culinary experiences, urban space, and emotional closeness. No large camping area, no overloaded main stage, but an accessible city festival with a clear handwriting, strong local ties, and a program that brings together enjoyment and encounter. This creates the special dynamic that visitors appreciate in such formats.
