Get ready for a star-studded event in Hannover as the current federal chancellor, Olaf Scholz, graces the Protestant Church Convention. Slated for this Friday at 11:00 AM, Scholz's appearance will likely be one of his final duties before Stephen Merz potentially takes over as chancellor on May 6. The interview, titled "Optimism Amidst Adversity," promises to be a captivating conversation.

Initially, Merz was scheduled to attend the Church Convention, but scheduling conflicts forced him to back out.

The opening ceremony on Wednesday in Lower Saxony's state capital will welcome notable figures such as Federal President Frank-Walter Steinmeier, former Chancellor Angela Merkel, former Federal President Christian Wulff, President of the Bundestag Julia Klöckner, climate activist Luisa Neubauer, and music icons Joy Denalane and Max Herre. The five-day event is expected to draw up to 100,000 attendees with tickets in hand.

While the 2025 German Protestant Church Congress in Hannover has yet to reveal a comprehensive list of attendees, such events typically attract religious leaders, community figures, artists, and political representatives looking for interfaith dialogue or community engagement. However, more detailed information concerning notable attendees may be found in official announcements or press releases from the organizing committee or participating groups.
