Further Information
Tollwood Winter Festival
Since 1988 the Tollwood Festival takes place in Munich and since 1991 even twice a year. In the summer the Tollwood Festival is situated in the Olympic park and in the winter at Theresienwiese. The Tollwood Festival has a great cultural offer and provides a platform for environmental themes.
The festival presents three areas: The “market of ideas” where handcraft and craftwork from all over the world is presented. Organic certification of food is another concept of Tollwood Festival. Therefore most of the food at the festival is organic. A performance platform for music, theater and art is the third part of the Tollwood concept.
Especially in the summer many open-air performances, e.g. music or theater are free of charge. There is also a concert tend, the “Musik Arena”, where the shows and concerts of international stars take place. Tickets are available in advance.
The Winter Festival
During the last four weeks before Christmas, until 23. December the Winter Tollwood takes place at Theresienwiese. Even from a distance you can see the illuminated tents and many of the light installations which give the festival an atmosphere of “thousand and one night”. In the winter the market of ideas is situated in big tents and the Winter Tollwood festival has its own Christmas market. Another feature is the “Weltsalon”, a fascinating multimedia-based venue featuring important ecological and social issues.
While the festival market will close on 23. December the cultural program is performing until the New Year.
