Summer festival in the Welfengarten: celebrations, music and activities for everyone!
On Thursday, July 3, 2025, visitors can expect a fun afternoon with the traditional summer festival in the Welfengarten at Leibniz University Hannover (LUH). From 4 p.m. the festival will begin with an impressive start by the LUH Big Band. Prof. Dr. Volker Epping, President of the LUH, will welcome the guests with his welcome speech and thus give the starting signal for a colorful afternoon aimed at students, employees and alumni.
The summer festival offers something for everyone. With 27 different stands, visitors can experience interesting activities from institutes, faculties and facilities. Participation and experimentation are the order of the day. From sporting activities for children at the Faculty of Economics to relaxing offers such as the book flea market at the university library - there is something for every taste here. You can also try your luck on the Wheel of Fortune at the Center for University Sports or take part in the flag guessing at the University Office for International Affairs.
Culinary delicacies and music
Of course, the culinary supply is not neglected either. The selection ranges from refreshing snacks such as ice cream, crepes and French fries to hearty grilled dishes. There's no skimping on drinks either: cocktails, beer, wine and non-alcoholic refreshments are available. The music program continues with live performances from 7 p.m. so that guests can end the evening in a relaxed atmosphere.
Particularly noteworthy is the law faculty's wine stand, which will offer delicious wines from southern Styria in Austria in cooperation with the alumni association. This special connection to Austria not only makes the festival a local event, but also gives it an international flair. With all of these offers, entry to the summer festival will be free, which will certainly attract many guests.
A celebration for the community
The summer festival is more than just a celebration - it is an opportunity for students, alumni and employees to network and experience the diversity of the university. In addition to the fun and entertainment, there is also the opportunity to find out more about the different facilities and what they have to offer. The gathering is enriched not only by music and food, but also by the exchange of ideas and experiences.
In a Germany-wide comparison of the largest festivals and events, it becomes clear that festivals such as Rock am Ring, Lollapalooza and Wacken often characterize the summer months. The LUH summer festival, on the other hand, offers a family atmosphere that is specifically tailored to the needs of the university community and thus has its own special appeal. This shows that smaller festivals can also play a valuable role in the region's event calendar and create space for personal encounters.
The entire team at Leibniz University Hannover is looking forward to an unforgettable day in the Welfengarten and cordially invites everyone to become part of this special event.
