Location

Chemnitz, Rölitzer Park

entrance free

A warm welcome to the Chemnitz CoolTour party at “Rölitzer Park” (that’s what the C2025 intervention area on Vettersstrasse is now called, or ‘Röli’ for short) on Wednesday 26 August 2026, from around 3 pm to 9 pm!
“Getting to know and love Chemnitz’s culture – and ourselves – better.” We’re getting stuck in, doing lots of things ourselves, and it’s all on a voluntary basis:

  • We’ll each bring something tasty to share at the communal buffet. Dinner and drinks will be available, as always, at the neighbouring SUBBOTNIK.
  • Everything we’ve always wanted to know about each other: through respectful conversations, we can get to know one another better.
  • We’ll experience our CoolTour and, for those who wish, there’ll be an open stage at the Mitmach-Bühne: your own songs, poems and stories, mime, Speakers’ Corner, music from around the world, magic tricks and…
  • listen to the Etcetera-PP.-CoolTour expert discussion. But aren’t we all 
    experts? How do we experience the local CoolTour both on and off the Purple Trail?
  • Perhaps we’ll sing together, too. After all, singing lifts the spirits, and most of us 
    are better at it than they realise.
  • A henna tattoo on your hand? An expert will show you how it’s done.

The Bänderbaum invites you to dance, play friendly games and much more. The “RÖLI”: once an overgrown green space, now a multifunctional event venue near the Marianne-Brandt Secondary School and the SUBBOTNIK socio-cultural centre. We’re looking forward to a fun and community-building CoolTour and hands-on experience.
