Hessenfest 2025: Strong commitment to cooperation in Berlin!

A highlight of the event was also the inviting culinary delights: over 80 Hessian companies and associations presented their products and services. The guests could be pampered by Hessian specialties such as Handkäs with music, Hesse kebab and a VDP wine lounge with lace wines. The Frankfurt Urban Club Band and moderator Tobi Radloff, who accompanied the celebrations, provided the cultural part. The Landesgartenschau Oberhessen was also present with a pantomime advertising, while DHL provided family fun with a Carrera racetrack.

culture and commitment: the Hephata campaign

The social aspect did not fall by the wayside. Hephata was also represented at the Hessenfest and offered a special action under the motto "Love Letters instead of hate speech". Here, the guests were able to write handwritten thanks to committed Democrats from Hesse. Boris Rhein was the first to take part in this campaign to set a sign against hatred and agitation. Around 50 guests, including celebrities and politicians, took part in the campaign to show appreciation and respect. The letters are to be shared on social media under the hashtag #offenfuervielfalt.

A personal photo from a photo box accompanied every message, and Dagmar Krauße of "Open for Diversity" underlined the importance of commitment to democracy. Hephata also invited the guests to a Thanksgiving Festival on October 1, 2023 on their Bioland-Hofgut in Richerode, where a service and hope are on the program.

a garden in Berlin

The Hessian State Representation, which has been the loudspeaker of the Hessian interests since its inauguration on May 31, 2001, is also known for its remarkable garden landscape. In 1997 Hessen secured a 3,000 square meter area in the ministerial gardens, where a vineyard with 200 vines was created. In addition, there have been two apple trees from Hesse on the vineyard since spring 2023.

The Hessenfest is not only a platform for the presentation, but also a place of encounters and the exchange. Discussions of the Hessian Minister present, the president of the German Bundestag Julia Klöckner, Chancellor Friedrich Merz and other politicians testify to a lively Hessian presence in Berlin that radiates far beyond the national borders. It becomes clear that Hessen's innovative strength and cultural strength are very popular - and not only in Berlin.

For everyone who could not experience this eventful festival live, there is now the opportunity to attend the upcoming events such as the Thanksgiving Festival and become part of the Hessian community.
