Kalkfest 11. Juli 2026

In the organizer's words:

Kalkfest 2026 - Show me your world!

Kalk will once again be colorful, lively and surprising in 2026: The Kalkfest invites you to rediscover the district around the Kalker Post. Under the motto "Show me your world", people, initiatives and organizations will open up their perspectives - and make Kalk tangible for everyone.

The heart of the festival will be on the square at Kalker Post: Here, the otherwise rather gray place is transformed into a relaxed city beach oasis with deckchairs, beanbags, music and plenty of space to linger. A varied program with play activities, hands-on formats, art, music and concerts awaits you in the surrounding streets from 14:00 to 19:00. On the stage at the Kalker Post, the festival continues until 21:30.

The Kalkfest is organized by Sozialraumkoordination Kalk together with a dedicated planning group of local initiatives, associations and residents - in other words, from the heart of the district.

Want to be part of the program yourself?
You can register your own activities online. You can find the link on the social space coordination website or here: https://kalk.sozialraumkoordination.koeln/2926/4754.html

• Openness, inclusion and low barriers

• No commercial interests

• and above all: fun and added value for everyone!

We look forward to a diverse, open and lively day with you at Kalkfest 2026!
