MOUNDS – the music festival for the whole family (9 to 14 July 2023)
What happens when you combine the words mountains and sound? That’s right, you get MOUNDS! And because the music festival for the whole family is all about good sound and the wild mountain scenery, the name of this popular festival fits it perfectly. For six days, everything revolves around really cool beats. Numerous top acts from the German children’s music scene, family concerts, and workshops on dance, rhythm, or singing make the time fly by.

True to the motto “Whoever brakes, loses”, the fastest bobby car drivers in Europe will compete against each other at the BIG Bobby Car European Championship. At speeds of up to 80 kilometres per hour, you really get that race feeling. In addition to the real professionals, other groups, such as amateurs and teenagers, are also allowed to take part. But even little racers can get their money’s worth and race their Bobby Cars on the children’s track. Parents can cheer and root for them at the edge of the track while they race.
