Democracy to Participate: A whole week full of ideas, encounters, and culture in the district of Neu-Ulm
In autumn 2026, the district of Neu-Ulm puts democracy in the spotlight: From September 28 to October 3, visitors can expect a free, district-wide program featuring art, culture, exhibitions, family offerings, and other participatory formats. The event series focuses on exchange, participation, and a vibrant community – making democratic values directly experienceable.
A strong signal for participation and cohesion
The Week of Democracy connects event planning and target group outreach in a special way: children, youth, adults, and families will find suitable offerings throughout the district of Neu-Ulm. Instead of dry theory, the event experience takes center stage. Those who attend will experience democracy as an open, approachable, and collective topic – with space for conversations, perspectives, and new impulses.
The highlight: the Long Night of Democracy
On Friday, October 2, 2026, the Mark Twain Elementary School in Neu-Ulm will become the central meeting point. From 2:30 PM to 10:00 PM, a diverse program will kick off with an opening, keynote speech, workshops, the Market of Democracy, creative participatory actions, and cultural contributions. The lecture by Rainald Manthe addresses the motto “Democracy needs encounters” and focuses on listening, dialogue, and social cohesion.
Program with many perspectives
The mix of information, interaction, and atmosphere is particularly appealing. Clubs, initiatives, and organizations will present themselves at the Market of Democracy, while workshops and discussion formats will address current social issues. Children and youth will also benefit from their own actions. In the evening, a joint conclusion with songs around democracy, freedom, and cohesion will wrap up the day.
Why a visit is worthwhile
The Week of Democracy offers a versatile event experience with real added value: free of charge, open to all, and relevant to the questions of our time. Those who want to experience democracy rather than merely discuss it will find a strong connection point in the district of Neu-Ulm.
Conclusion: The Week of Democracy and the Long Night of Democracy promise encounters, impulses, and a strong sense of community. A visit is worthwhile for everyone who wants to experience culture, participation, and social exchange live.
