Events - Events in Wesel.

Fun for all cycling enthusiasts! On the first Sunday in July each year, more than 30,000 cycling enthusiasts explore the Lower Rhine. Around 70 towns and municipalities along the Rhine and Meuse take part in the Lower Rhine Cycling Day. And with circular routes ranging from 10 to 80 kilometres, there is something for every cyclist.

The annual traditional festival "Pauken, Plunder, Promenade", or PPP for short, is a real visitor magnet. The funfair, fireworks, flea market, divers' meeting & marksmen's day and live music provide the right entertainment.

The Auesee will be the meeting place for VW bus fans from all over Europe. Over 50,000 visitors are expected - of course with live bands, great leisure activities on the beach such as stand-up paddling, hands-on activities for children and much more.

Wesel becomes a stage on this night! The cultural scene presents and meets at various locations in the city centre. A constantly changing programme, both indoors and outdoors, shows a wide range of artistic and cultural creativity.

From 11:00 to 18:00, Xanten town centre invites you to take an autumnal stroll. On Sundays, the shops also open for Sunday shopping.

Every year, the traditional Hanseatic Festival commemorates Wesel's accession to the Hanseatic League in 1407. Visitors can expect an extensive supporting programme, a farmers' and medieval market and an open Sunday. The large knights' camp at the Berliner Tor and the historical parade on Saturday evening form the highlight of the festival.
