To mark the end of the Capital of Culture year in Chemnitz, things are getting folkloristic at the end of the month. On 29 November, around 1,000 people in traditional costumes will parade through the city in a large mountain parade, according to the organizers. In addition, a large Christmas carol singing event is planned in front of a historic backdrop on Theaterplatz, where visitors can join in with choirs and professional musicians. In the evening, the Capital of Culture year will be looked back on under the title "Feierabend!" on a stage before DJs turn Brückenstraße into an open-air dance floor.
The year as European Capital of Culture was opened in mid-January. Since then, a wide-ranging program of concerts, exhibitions, festivals and events has been offered under the title "C the Unseen". The final spurt will now be repeated in November.
