Light art sparkled in the city centre and the Holtenauer Straße

The third edition of the Kieler Lichtermeer transformed the entire city centre and Holtenauer Straße into a colourful spectacle of effectively staged displays on building facades and artistic attention-grabbing elements. In addition, the shore power system of the Port of Kiel, the CAU high-rise building and the Alte Mu were also illuminated.

On the weekend of November 4 and 5, young guests were able to listen to fairy tales on Asmus-Bremer-Platz and try their hand at candle making and a hands-on circus. The hustle and bustle of the traders at Europa-Platz and Asmus-Bremer-Platz complemented the program with a colourful range of food stalls and diverse products.

On Sunday, Kieler Lichtermeer unfolded in all its glory. The route of lights with over 15 different locations delighted young and old alike, while walking acts, light shows and stylishly arranged parks amazed 57,000 visitors as night fell. In addition, Kiel's shops opened their doors for an extensive Sunday shopping tour from 1-6 p.m. under the motto "I feel Kiel".
