Mukkefukk Festival: Handicrafts and Music Association for Wahlendow on Saturday!

Next Saturday, June 28, 2025, the time has finally come again: The mostly expected Mukkefukk Festival will take place in the idyllic Wahlendow in the Vorpommern-Greifswald district. Organized by the Wahlendower Dorfverein, the festival attracts around 500 visitors who can look forward to a more colorful program than ever before. The starting shot is located at 2 p.m., and the offer ranges from various historical craft professions to live music from young talents.

What can the guests expect? On the festival day, the participants can try old crafts such as pots and wood carvers. The painters, carpenters and sculptors from the region show their skills, while the spinners, known as "the sheep of Daugin", are also at the start. In the late afternoon, the mood is mixed up by live performances in particular of regional youth bands, which are funded by the Greifswald music factory. Thus, the festival not only offers a platform for artistic forms of expression, but also promotes cohesion in Eastern Western Pomerania.

cultural highlight with regional flair

The Mukkefukk Festival comes as a cultural counter offer to the large music festivals and relies on regional identity and craft tradition. Almost all helpers and organizers come from the area, which strengthens the local feeling of community. The event is supported by the Festival Funding Fund of the Music Initiative, which already granted a funding commitment in February to facilitate the event organization, according to ndr .

An exciting innovation this year is the introduction of a small additional stage and a competition for the design of a new logo for the festival. The organizers are looking for a round emblem that should represent the connection to music, craft or both in a simple but meaningful design. Designs for the logo can be submitted by April 17, 2025. The winner not only gets free tickets, but also a small festival package, which should offer additional motivation, so Nordkurier .

joy and feeling of community in the Wahlendower Park

Families, friends and music lovers away from the big commercial festivals can look forward to an unforgettable experience in the Wahlendower Park, where the festival takes place. The variety of artistic performances paired with the possibility of becoming active yourself will provide a good atmosphere again this year. The festival aims to strengthen the sense of community and show the cultural diversity of the region.

This event is not only a festival for the senses, but also a platform to promote young musicians and craftsmen. With a good dose of support from the regional environment and the tireless efforts of the organizers, the Mukkefukk Festival already has a permanent place in the region's cultural calendar. The local radio NDR will report on the festival every day from 5:30 a.m. - one more reason not to miss the event!
