Here you will find all information about  Festival programme and admission prices.

The organisation of a major event such as the Africa Days is associated with very high costs (space rental, technology, advertising, artist fees, staff costs, etc.). In order to be able to finance the festival and still enable all visitors to participate in the festival, we offer staggered admission prices >> see tickets

The Africa Days take place in all weathers. For safety reasons, we can unfortunately only allow umbrellas in the stage area to a limited extent. We recommend that you bring a rain cape, coat or hat, as we do NOT offer disposable capes on the grounds in order to avoid plastic waste.
