Share this

Over 550,000 visitors are expected at the biggest annual city festival in Germany – Dresden’s 2014 City Festival.

Taking place from 15 – 17 August, the event boasts 13 areas, on seven stages in glorious Baroque scenery with a wonderful mix of music, theatre, sport and food – a great way to spend a summer’s weekend.

Dresden’s 2014 City Festival, dedicated to the Royal painter Canaletto, has plenty to entertain visitors. Don’t miss the Dresden Fürstenzug “Procession of Princes”, a 335 ft. long, Meissen Porcelain Wall showing all rulers of the Wettin dynasty – ancestors of almost all European Royalty. The Royal Palace, the baroque Dresden Zwinger and the beautifully rebuilt baroque centre of Dresden are also ‘must-sees’.

The theme for this year’s festival is ‘passionately romantic’ and the event is set to leave visitors feeling passionate about Dresden for many years to come.
Getting to Dresden is easy with direct flights from London City Airport.
