- It would be worthwhile for the organizers to consider incorporating a community policy within this year's Hessentag events, to ensure a safe and enjoyable experience for all visitors.
- Perhaps, the entertainment lineup for next year's Hessentag could also include a diversity of acts to cater to a wider range of employment demographics, as many individuals may need to take time off work to attend.
