Halloween 2025: Quiet night in Hamburg despite police operations!
Halloween evening in Hamburg was largely quiet on November 1st, 2025. The police reported a few notable incidents. Despite various security measures that were implemented in the districts of Harburg, Wilhelmsburg, Steilshoop and Billstedt, there were no major riots. The emergency services had prepared well for the evening, especially after the incidents last year, when around 300 young people in Harburg threw firecrackers and bottles at police officers and a large number of criminal proceedings were initiated. In 2023, the balance sheet for the police looked very different, when 33 proceedings were initiated.
Fortunately, the police are already drawing positive conclusions for Halloween 2024, and this year they also used drones for the first time. These are intended to help make a more precise assessment of the situation and increase the feeling of security in the affected districts. The surveillance drone system had previously been used to monitor traffic and red light violations, which was extremely effective and has now been expanded to include the nightly Halloween celebrations.
