International street festival in Sindelfingen: Cultural variety despite the conflict!

Last weekend, from June 13th to 15th, the 47th International Street Festival took place in Sindelfingen, which, despite smoldering conflicts, proved to be a real crowd puller. This event attracts visitors from near and far who can be tried through the variety of international specialties. The guests in particular inspire the kitchens from Portugal, Serbia and Afghanistan and bring a hint of cosmopolitan city to the Baden-Württemberg city. The colorful stands and performances once again show how richly the cultures around Sindelfingen are. As the report, the street festival was a real festival of nations and cultures.

The official opening was on June 13th at 7 p.m. by Mayor Dr. Bernd Vöhringer and Mario Marino celebrated. It was Vöhringer's last opening speech, as the new mayor Markus Kleemann will take over the opening next year. The highlights of the program included different music and dance performances that kidnapped the audience into the cultural traditions of the partner cities, which were also represented with stands. These include cities such as Corbeil-Essonnes, Chelm and Györ. Where the partnership evening on June 12 once attuned visitors to the festival, the place of the partner cities in Ziegelstraße/corner of Planiestrasse served as a central meeting point.

Numerous music groups also contributed to this, such as "Fire Fingers" that appeared on Friday, and the Royal Sonesta Jazz band, which created the mood on Saturday and Sunday.

Roads in the festival area were fully blocked, and the access to underground garages was only possible via certain entrances. Due to renovation work, the underground car park market square could not be hit, and the weekly market on June 14 was moved to Vaihinger Strasse.

Another aspect that overshadowed the festival despite the positive mood was the smoldering conflict between the organizer and the Portuguese association, which shaped this year's event. Such conflicts spoil the overall impression, but the colorful diversity and the joy of the visitors made success again this year.

Such events are not only a pleasure for the senses, but also promote the exchange and understanding between different cultures. A festival that celebrates community and cohesion and offers an unforgettable time in Sindelfingen!
