Villingen-Schwenningen shines: premiere of Abendflair is exciting!

The eagerly awaited premiere of the new event format “Abendflair” took place in Villingen-Schwenningen on Thursday. The aim of this initiative, which is intended to spice up the cityscape, is to revitalize the city center in an atmospheric atmosphere. Exactly on the corner of Brunnengasse and Färberstrasse, the evening became an experience that captivated the visitors. How Black Forest messenger reports, the guests enjoyed the hustle and bustle with music from Funky Voyage and Simeon Disch from the local jazz club.

You could literally feel the joy and the good togetherness. The upcoming event is already in the starting blocks: On July 3rd, Obere Straße will become the stage for the next “Evening Flair” event, where the shops will be open until 9 p.m.

Diversity and enjoyment in the city center

The first evening featured a variety of offerings: from cocktails and grilled specialties to hot dogs and salads. In addition to the culinary delights, there was also a fashion bus on site, which added a special touch. The plan is to take place on two more evenings in June and July to make the city center really lively. However, the date originally planned for July 10th will be postponed due to a house fire on Gerberstrasse and will take place in autumn 2025. This decision was made to show the greatest possible consideration to affected residents and businesses villingen-schwenningen.de.

A notable aspect of the “Abendflair” format is the focus on local businesses.

This strategy is in line with the desire to revitalize the city center through creative events, as stated in an article on hochschul-ratgeber.de is to be read. Events like these not only strengthen local commerce, but also promote a sense of community and bring different people together.

Support for fire victims and a lively city center

Creativity and cohesion are the focus of this project. At the next “Abendflair” vouchers worth 1 euro will be given away to participating businesses, the proceeds of which will go to the German Red Cross to support the fire victims. Fundraisers are also welcome during the events, which shows that the community works hand in hand here.

The city administration also provided traffic information: On the first evening, Brunnenstrasse was completely closed between 4 p.m. and 10 p.m., which was communicated in good time through letters to residents. The feedback suggests that the initiative is met with approval and that the city is on the right track to increase the attractiveness of the city center. Positive feedback could lead to a repeat of the format next year, which will now continue on July 3rd.
