The Hans Fallada Society and the Literature Center Neubrandenburg organize the ceremony in cooperation with the Mecklenburg Foundation. The events can be attended without a ticket reservation; Nevertheless, it is recommended to acquire a combination card that enables access to all events. Some program items take place outdoors, which is why spontaneous visits are desired.

The Hans Fallada Museum in Carwitz, which is reminiscent of the life and work of the well-known writer, is one of the most important cultural places in the region and is very important in the Federal Republic. Fallada, bourgeois Rudolf Ditzen, lived in Carwitz in the 1920s and 30s and created some of his most important works there, including "Little Man now?". His stories are still a central component of German literature and offer an exciting view of the company at the time.
