Diversity, tolerance and openness are the fundamental values of the annual altonale. The festival promises 17 days of culture in Hamburg Altona.
The festival concept
The programme items of art altonale, literature altonale, theatre altonale, film altonale and music and dance altonale are partly held in unusual places all over Altona. The harmonious mixture of cultural events and commercial offers is the special character of this unique cultural festival and has been inspiring visitors for almost 20 years. Every year the altonale develops new ideas and offers for its visitors.
Every year
A highlight of the altonale every year is the flea market, which invites young and old to browse and discover. If you don't find what you are looking for there, you can search for special lovers and unique pieces at the DESGINgift Open-Air.
Programme for 2021
This year, the altonale will take place in two versions: the "regular" altonale will be held in September for the first time in 2021. As usual, the international festival of street arts STAMP and the street festival will conclude the festival. In addition, a hybrid form of the cultural festival will take place in June: for ten days there will be a daily live radio program with numerous guests.
