EcoHopper Festival

In the location's words:

From May 9 to 11, 2025, the EcoHopper Festival in Cologne will be all about delicious food that has much more to offer than just great taste. Innovative producers, retailers and restaurateurs will show how regionality, seasonality and organic farming can go together. Creative minds will be on hand - from vegan bodybuilder Patrik Baboumian to Janna Schilliinger, who brings fun and mindfulness together through ice bathing, to UN ambassador for creativity Maren Baermann.

On Friday evening we start with drinks and culinary delights at the Stadtgarten. From there, you can swarm out to workshops, talks and exhibitions on Saturday. We'll be talking about nutrition, impact start-ups, celebrations, education, travel, fashion, mindfulness, culture and inclusion at seven locations in the city center. Because there is so much on offer, we will summarize everything again in a poetry slam from 6 pm in the green room of the Stadtgarten. Afterwards, we will exchange ideas at the get-together.

On Sunday, there will be a scavenger hunt for nature projects in the city on Family Day. Let's discover together how we can enjoy shaping the future!
