Following the launch of the "Stadtpicnic" event series, the Brühl stakeholders are inviting you to the second round. On Sunday, 26 July 2015, the picnic blankets can be spread out on Schillerplatz / Straße der Nationen. Between 10 a.m. and 2 p.m., there will be musical fare from Chemnitz in addition to the treats you have brought yourself.

Bandbüro Chemnitz e.V. and other brewing artists will be on hand at the second open-air picnic to talk about their work and the motivation behind their commitment to the neighbourhood. Picnickers can enjoy the fading weekend to the sounds of soft electro and street music. There will also be hands-on activities for children and a radio quiz in the morning.

Sören Gruner from Bandbüro Chemnitz is looking forward to sharing a cup of coffee on the Bandbüro picnic blanket: "It's about time that Schillerplatz became more of a focal point. After all, it will soon be frequented by students from the future city centre campus. With the picnic, we want to get a feel for what can be done in the park."

"As the first Stadtpicnic has already shown, an invitation like this is a wonderful way to meet other Chemnitz residents in a relaxed atmosphere, get to know the work of the city's associations and spend a cosy Sunday outdoors together. With this series of events, the city marketing campaign wants to bring people together and show how creative, colourful and diverse our city is," says Katja Uhlemann, press officer for the city of Chemnitz, explaining the concept.


The "Stadtpicnic" event series is supported by Radio Chemnitz.

About the campaign:

Since March 2014, the city marketing campaign has been advertising under the title "The city is me" and uses various activities to show how many endearing, interesting and creative things there are in the city. The centrepiece of the campaign is the homepage www.die-stadt-bin-ich.de, where you can read articles about the maker of the week, confessions, a photo blog, editorial articles, event information such as Rock am Kopp and information on further steps for the new marketing and communication concept of the city of Chemnitz.

Since June 2015, the city marketing campaign has also extended beyond the city limits. The message "Unfold yourself!" is aimed at young people who are looking for space for their ideas or to start their careers. Who want to found, build, dream and realise something. In short, the city says: #CHEMNITZWILLDICH.

The first city picnic with DJ Felde and the Slackwerk association took place on the Küchwaldwiese on 5 July 2015. Two more events are to follow.
