Nostalgia party in Krofdorf-Gleiberg: From rain to bright sunshine

At the 33rd edition of the nostalgia party in Krofdorf-Gleiberg, visitors from the region and beyond were attracted last weekend. Despite the initial captive of weather, the sun showed its best side on Sunday and ensured an overcrowded festival area.

A change in the weather brings visitors to the nostalgia event

The nostalgia party, also known as Golden Oldies, offered a journey through time to music and fashion trends from the 50s to 80s. During the opening on Friday, it poured out what some visitors apparently stopped coming on Saturday. Sunday, on the other hand, shone in the sunshine and attracted many people to this traditionally popular event.

traffic problems and a decline in visitors reduce a festive mood

The number of visitors on Saturday was impaired by a construction site and probably bad weather, which led to long traffic jams on the Gießen Ring. The announced renovation work made access possible only on one track, which was already evident in advance. Mayor Marc Nees said that the low numbers on Saturday were disappointing, while Sunday was the opposite: "Saturday was underground and Sunday was outstanding," he confirmed.

diverse entertainment and culinary highlights

Sunday offered a colorful program with more than 60 bands, numerous show acts and a large fashion show. The roller skate disco attracted special attention, where visitors could even borrow roller skates. This turned out to be a real attraction, including thanks to shows and courses that the organizers had organized. The experienced chef Bernd Zehner prepared delicacies and distributed them to the audience during the event.

nostalgia and feeling of community strengthen the region

The nostalgia party is not only a celebration of old times, but also promotes the sense of community among the visitors. Friendships are renewed, old memories are awaited and regional culture celebrated. The large fashion show, which was presented by Burlesque artist Setty Mais, was another highlight and served to show the bandwidth of the talent in the region.

final view: An important event for Krofdorf-Gleiberg

Overall, the nostalgia party is an important event for the community, which despite various challenges once again proved that the community comes together to celebrate the past and enjoy the present. Despite the weak Saturday, the festive weekend mobilized many guests and gives hope that the precipitation will fail in the future to ensure a perfect festival.
