New discoveries, old favourites and plenty to celebrate – 35 years of theater, dance, music and new circus

When the first curtain went up on the Düsseldorf Festival (then known as Altstadtherbst) in 1991, we had lots of ideas, dreams and goals. We certainly couldn’t have imagined back then that it would be 35 years full of music, dance, theater and new circus.

Bringing a program to the stage every year that captivates, inspires and enthralls our audience and ourselves in equal measure is certainly one of the most rewarding tasks we are able to dedicate ourselves to year after year.

With our anniversary program, we would like to thank you for many years of loyalty, participation and support. In 35 years at the festival, you gain experience, make decisions, make mistakes and celebrate successes. We have remained true to our principle: Discovering new things and combining them with the tried and tested.

We are happy about every donation

Despite great sponsors and long-standing partners, as a non-profit organisation we are dependent on donations.

Would you also like to contribute to the success of the Düsseldorf Festival? Every donation helps us a lot.
