Holiday highlights in Rostock: celebrations, art and maritime magic!

The day of German unity is not only celebrated in Germany as a historical event, but rather is an occasion to honor the diversity and cohesion of the country. This year, Schwerin will host the central ceremony, while Rostock has a variety of events that make it possible to enjoy the holiday in a relaxed atmosphere. For all those who want to escape the hustle and bustle in the state capital, we have put together the best Highlights from Rostock.

The TDF Clubnight in the theater of peace is one of the most exciting events on the evening of the holiday, i.e. on October 2. From 10 p.m. the theater is transformed into a hotspot for night owls who want to celebrate the holiday with music, cocktails and an exuberant party atmosphere. A terrific start for all people who are happy to celebrate.

cultural highlights in Rostock

The art lovers get their money's worth on October 3 when the Kunsthalle Rostock opens the “Rostock creative” exhibition. This shows works by leisure artists from the region and not only offers the opportunity to admire art, but also to actively step into exchange with the artists. The opening takes place at 11 a.m. and the exhibition runs until October 13 with the allocation of an audience award, which promises additional tension.

Another event that celebrates the Maritime Culture of Rostock are the Stephan Jantzen days in Warnemünde, which take place from October 3 to 6. Here the legendary pilot manager Stephan Jantzen is honored, with a program that includes both musical contributions and cultural highlights. A concert will present the Jantzen Suite and an unplugged concert by Olaf Hobrlant round off the cultural performances. The events take place on Stephan Jantzen below the Warnemünder lighthouse and promise a lively flair.

not to be forgotten is the 29th Senatoren Regatta, which also takes place in the city harbor on October 3. Early in the morning, from 9 a.m., the sailors meet to prepare their boats before the starting shot is given at 11:30 a.m. The event not only attracts sports enthusiasts, but also spectators who can track the spectacle along the route.

For friends of the opera, the Giacomo Puccini's "Tosca" house will be performed on the same day at 6 p.m. This staging promises to become a highlight of the evening, both musically and visually.

Families with children will not want to miss the dance piece “Momo” in the Rostock Volkstheater. This also takes place on October 3 and is staged by Laura Witzleben. From 3 p.m., the captivating history of the girl Momo is told, which gives time by listening to other people. The staging promises to impressively present the temporal dimensions and thus offer an entertaining and educational experience for the younger spectators.

Rostock's diverse program for German unity Day offers an attractive alternative to the central celebrations in Schwerin and creates an insight into the city's cultural diversity. Each of these events offers the opportunity to experience and appreciate the unit and creative forms of expression in the region in different ways.
