Kicking Off Hessentag's First Weekend: A Fun-Filled Weekend Ahead! 🥳
Weekend Kick-off for Hessentag Festival - Weekend commences with the onset of Hessentag.
Brace yourselves, folks, 'cause the much-anticipated Hessentag is here! This year, the state festival kicks off its first weekend starting today with a bang. But, before we dive into the festivities, let's talk weather.
While the initial days might cause a spring-like confusion, the skies could turn a bit turbulent as the weekend approaches. The German Weather Service already predicts an early heat storm on Saturday, followed by some powerful thunderstorms lashing out with heavy downpours during the night and early Sunday. So, don't forget to bring your umbrella, just in case!
But worry not, once the rain settles, there'll be plenty of excitement in store! On Saturday, be ready to witness the "Day of Volunteer Deployment Forces," and you might even spot our Hessian Minister President Boris Rhein and Interior Minister Roman Poseck (both from the mighty CDU) on the Hessentag grounds. If you're up for a music-filled evening, there's a concert lined up, featuring none other than rapper Ski Aggu, among other talented artists.
As we march into Sunday, the "Day of the Police" takes center stage. After the ceremony, you can catch a performance by the legendary Swedish rock band Mando Diao and friends.
It's all happening for the first time in beautiful Bad Vilbel, the city which welcomes you with open arms for the 62nd edition of the state festival until the 22nd of June. Over 1,600 events are ready to keep you entertained throughout the Hessentag days. Minister President Rhein and Bad Vilbel's Mayor Sebastian Wysocki (also a CDU member) officially opened the Hessentag.
So, make sure you grab your calendar, pack your rain gear, and get ready to join in on the fun at Hessentag! Don't forget to check the official website or social media of the event for any updates, and bundle up to brave the potential showers of the weekend. Have a blast, y'all! 🎉
