Cologne Carnival 2027: The Fifth Season

The Cologne Carnival is a massive traditional folk festival. The 2027 session theme is Morje es, wat do drus mähs! (Tomorrow is what you make of it!). The street carnival spans six crazy days from Weiberfastnacht to Violet Tuesday.

Key Events and Traditions

  • Weiberfastnacht (Women's Carnival): The street carnival begins at 11:11 a.m. on Thursday. Traditions include women cutting off men's ties and the handover of city keys.
  • Carnival Friday & Saturday: Features local association parades and the Funkenbiwak open-air session on Neumarkt.
  • Geisterzug (Ghost Parade): An alternative, spontaneous parade with political overtones held on Saturday evening.
  • Rose Monday: The climax of the festival. A massive 8-kilometer parade featuring floats, marching bands, and dance groups. Over 300 tonnes of sweets and 300,000 flowers are thrown to the crowds before the arrival of the Prince.
  • Violet Tuesday: The final day features large neighborhood parades and the burning of the Nubbel, a straw scapegoat that absorbs the revelers' carnival transgressions.
