Allgäu Airport, 87700 Memmingen, Deutschland - From June 6th to June 8th 2025, the Ikarus Festival takes place at Allgäu Airport in Memmingen.

Police Vice President Dr. Stadler emphasizes that preparations were made in close coordination with the security authorities and the organizer. A central point of planning is traffic steering for the arrival and departure of the festival goers. A proven traffic concept, which has already proven to be successful in the previous year, is used again. In order to avoid traffic jams and disabilities, the police recommend that visitors use the signposted routes and not only rely on navigation devices, so new-facts.eu.

security concepts and measures

The security policy concept also includes preparations for eventualities such as storm situations or medical emergencies. The safety of visitors and emergency services is a top priority. In the previous year, only a few complaints from residents were recorded, which indicates successful planning. The police operation is the most extensive of the year for the Presidium and is reinforced by units by the riot police, dog handlers and customs officers. A high police presence is also planned on the festival site to prevent and pursue crimes and administrative offenses.

The organizer also bears the responsibility for possible road barriers and traffic positions if regular road traffic is affected by the festival. According to applicable laws, approvals are required for such special uses, which requires additional planning. In addition, the costs for the establishment of traffic signs must be the responsibility of the organizer, especially if the flows of visitors exceed the normal use of the street, explains eventfaq.de.

Overall, the police headquarters want a peaceful and safe event that is seamlessly integrated into the holiday weekend. With good preparation and a clear focus on security, the Ikarus Festival 2025 seems to be on a promising path.
