Steinfeld Calling - Ein Festival der kulturellen Vielfalt

The festival unites small arts, modern performance, and music. In collaboration with the Alanus University Bornheim, a digital light installation is being developed that tells the history of the monastery. This project offers young talents in the field of digital light performance the opportunity to unleash their creativity and present it to a broad audience. Students will promote the festival digitally.

Musically, we will strengthen collaboration across national borders: Music groups from the Eupen area will contribute to the musical design, thereby making a statement for cross-border cooperation in the EuRegio. Student groups from the local high school will musically shape the ongoing fair, and a choir and an orchestra of regional artists will provide a classical music performance. The festival will be designed to be especially attractive for families with children: Small artists will lighten up the program, and an interactive circus will provide entertainment for the youngest visitors.

Sustainability is in focus: In the consumption area, we rely on the concept of the manufacturer "PAPSTAR," which uses compostable materials and is fully recyclable.
