MainWeltmusik Festival 2026

Offenbach is a place of lived diversity, where people of different origins, languages, religions, and generations come together. This diversity offers great opportunities for strong democratic coexistence – if exchange and participation are actively encouraged.

The MainWeltmusik Festival creates exactly this space: it stands for dialogue, respect, and a spirit of solidarity that transcends social and cultural boundaries. At its core is music as a universal language – it overcomes barriers, connects people emotionally, and creates genuine closeness between different worlds of life.

The festival sees itself not only as a cultural event, but also as a platform for intercultural exchange, social participation, and the experience of democracy as a lived culture of coexistence – open, diverse, and accessible to all. The festival is participatory by design: artists, associations, initiatives, and committed citizens actively contribute. The organizing association coordinates planning and implementation together with local stakeholders.
