Schlagermove 2025: Hundreds of thousands celebrate on St. Pauli!

On June 30, 2025, the Hamburg cityscape is once again shaped by a colorful hit parade, because the hit movement moves through St. Pauli again. The event, which has been an integral part of the Hamburg holiday culture since 1997, is expecting hundreds of thousands of visitors this year. In the previous year there were already around 400,000, and this year you also expect a similar number of guests who are happy to celebrate. The move begins at 3 p.m. and moves from the Heiligengeistfeld to well -known hotspots to the starting point.

The route leads over Millerntorplatz and Landungsbrücken to the Reeperbahn before the colorful trucks and their passengers return to the Heiligengeistfeld. The installation of the vehicles begins from 1 p.m., and a numerous team of 300 paramedics takes care of the security. Around 500 sanitary facilities are provided on the route, which is good news for all celebrations.

The preparations run

So that everything runs smoothly, parts of St. Pauli and the Reeperbahn are closed until 3 a.m. In view of the high number of visitors and the festive hustle and bustle, it is advisable to plan the journey by public transport, especially since the A7 between Hamburg-Stellingen and Hamburg-Heimfeld is fully blocked throughout the weekend.

The aftermove party after the move promises to become another highlight. This begins around 5:30 p.m. in two large party tents on the Heiligengeistfeld, and tickets are required for access. In addition to DJ Vossi, a Wolfgang Petry Double and the singer Norman Langen will ensure the background music, which continues the hit celebration into the late night.

a festive weekend

Already on Friday, July 4, 2025, a warm-up party will take place, which is also celebrated in the Schlagermove Scha-la-la warehouse © Party tent and in the party hall on the Heiligengeistfeld. Here, among other things, a Nena Double and the entertainer Jürgen Peter will be on stage.

Participation in the move itself is free and open to everyone, which underlines a cozy and sociable character. Around 50 trucks will take part in the colorful parade, which creates a good atmosphere on the specified route of over five kilometers. Despite the great rush, the organizers are challenged, because in Hamburg there must be major public events with more than 10,000 participants. Factors such as the risk potential and the nature of the event area also play an important role. A written application for approval must be made in good time to ensure that the hit movement will be a complete success again this year.

A cooperation partner also causes a stir, because at the same time Ed Sheeran will appear in the Volksparkstadion and numerous fans will also flock to the city. With these additional events at the weekend, the mood in the Hanseatic city is likely to be particularly magnificent and a very special festival feeling for him.

The anticipation for the big festival is noticeable and delights many Hamburgers and visitors alike. The motto "Schlager, good mood and community" will also be celebrated in the heart of Hamburg in 2025 - you shouldn't miss that!
