Summer, Danube Island, and pure festival atmosphere: The Swearing Week Festival on the Schwal brings Neu-Ulm to life

When the Danube Island in Neu-Ulm transforms into an open festival landscape, exactly the festival atmosphere arises for which the Swearing Week Festival on the Schwal stands: multiple days of celebration, live music, light serenade, and a strong community feeling in the middle of summer.

A festival with local tradition and a major attraction

The official event calendar of the cities of Ulm and Neu-Ulm describes the Swearing Week Festival on the Schwal as part of the Swearing Weekend, which starts on Friday with a Mallorca party and continues until Swearing Monday. The program includes DEEJAY BIENE, PARTYCRASHER, CAROLINA, TOBEE, the UNITED DANCE BAND, Mike Van Hyke, ALBFETZA, and the BÄTSCHERBUAM. Thus, the festival combines regional roots with exuberant party energy and a clear open-air character.

Between main stage, light serenade, and Swearing Monday

Especially appealing is the mix of party, tradition, and atmospheric moments: On Saturday, the light serenade sets an atmospheric accent, on Sunday, there will be a breakfast and white sausage breakfast, before on Swearing Monday, the Nabada and the closing party lead the festival to its grand finale. This blend makes the Swearing Week Festival a multi-day experience that attracts music lovers, families, and regular guests alike.
