An Afternoon Full of Sound, Motion, and Imagination

The second Family Sunday focuses on proximity, playfulness, and a relaxed audience atmosphere. Eichhorn and Purple Dog take children and parents on a playful concert full of rap, classic quotes, and stories that immediately conjure up images in the mind. BrassedArts then follows with ska, rock, soul, and big band sound, bringing palpable festival energy into the historic walls of the Wilhelmsburg.

The Wilhelmsburg as a Special Stage

The event takes place in a location with character: The Wilhelmsburg is located at Prittwitzstraße 100 in 89075 Ulm. There are only a few parking options available on-site, so the location recommends using public transport. The bus line 7 and tram line 2 are mentioned, and 2 to 3 accessible parking spaces are available in the accessible courtyard.
