River Rhine Ablaze in 2025: Between Spay and Koblenz - Details, Timings, Locations?
Rhein in Flammen, a three-day summer festival, is back in Koblenz from August 8 to 10. The event, which is traditionally celebrated in several communities along the Middle Rhine, promises a variety of live music, entertainment, food, and drinks along the Rhine and Moselle riverbanks.
The festival resumes today at noon in Koblenz, with each location along the route offering a varied program. For instance, party-goers can enjoy a night of DJs at the Lahn mouth in Niederlahnstein.
The main day of the festival is Saturday, with the grand fireworks display and a new drone show scheduled in the evening. The grand finale fireworks and drone show will take place on the fortress of Ehrenbreitstein at 11 PM. The drone show features 400 drones and colorful LED lights, illuminating the sky over the Deutsches Eck.
For those planning to attend, it's important to note that the city of Koblenz anticipates around 140,000 visitors during Rhein in Flammen. To accommodate this, free Park&Ride parking lots are available at the Karthause and Kurt-Schumacher-Bridge in Koblenz. Additional parking spaces can be found in the Koblenzer districts of Metternich, Moselweiß, Rauental, at the EPG Arena on Oberwerth, and at the Karthause.
Residents in the city center should expect altered traffic routing as usual, and regional trains around Koblenz will run later than usual on the night of the festival. Many guests tend to leave immediately after the fireworks, potentially causing traffic congestion.
For detailed information, visit the Rhein in Flammen website. If you need exact timings or additional program details for 2022, these are usually available on the official Rhein in Flammen Koblenz website or through local tourist information for that year.
On Sunday, a family day with karaoke and face painting is scheduled from 12 to 6 PM in Koblenz. The Koblenzer Verkehrsbetriebe (koveb) will operate a special timetable with extra trips, especially in the evenings.
Rhein in Flammen Koblenz is a free event, with drink concessions managed via deposit schemes. The event is renowned as a full festival experience, inviting visitors to enjoy music, dancing, and a festive atmosphere during the three days.
