The week of the year in which Stuttgart becomes the center of the world.

One more year a total success, one of the most important public events so far in the city of Stuttgart. Its importance lies in many aspects of admiring, its social symbolism is of great cultural relevance. It is the summer festival of cultures in Stuttgart held by the Cultural Forum of the city ..

A group of social clubs representing different countries of the 5 continents join forces to carry out this event, funded by donations from foundations, activities organized throughout the year for fundraising and even with contributions from its visitors, all this enormous effort to set up an event that for 6 days brings us a musical, artistic and gastronomic show with representation of most corners of the world that are concentrated within Stuttgart.

And it is the event that shows that multi-cultural part that Stuttgart has been developing during the last decades due to the need of that immigrant labor power that has made the city grow in recent years. That cultural diversity that brings color and flavor finally congregates for a week to celebrate the opportunity to be reunited and to thank the social welfare that Stuttgart has the opportunity to offer to all its citizens. The level of organization of the 6-day event is impressive.

In the Market Square (marktplatz) outside the city hall next to its surrounding streets, they hosted this great event with different international food stalls and handicrafts for sale, the gastronomic variety is one of its biggest attractions, it is the The only opportunity in the year is that cultural diversity is concentrated to be able to enjoy a great variety of traditional dishes from different countries of the world, which with great pride, dedication and dedication try to bring to the city that authentic flavor of the national cuisine of each one of them
​The event opened on Tuesday around half past five in the afternoon with the musical presentation of La Yegros de Argentina that with its South American electro cumbia rhythms put everyone to dance immediately, in addition to sowing the expectation that the next few days of the event would be fantastic. Throughout the week, bands paraded with musicians from all latitudes, from African, Arab, and Latin mixes with rock, pop, jazz, blues and reggea, highlighting the presentation of resident groups in North America, Turkey, Poland, England, France , Holland, Egypt but that are made up of musicians of different nationalities that make up that musical diversity that the festival demands, groups like Ginkoa, Electrik Gem, Amsterdam Klezmer Band, Nour Project, Rupa and The April Fishes, Baba Zula, The Tubans, Almegretta , Sundburg and finally closing on Sunday with the presentation of Mario Lucio and Simentera. The message of the artists was motivated by that feeling of union, peace and love among the peoples of the world, a unanimous cry of hope against the exclusion and racism that tarnishes the human spirit of all nations, a celebration of life and its diversity of thoughts, cultures and traditions that aim at the pursuit of happiness and individual prosperity respecting the positive ideologies established throughout the world, which are now part of a city like Stuttgart, which today houses citizens day from all over the world.

There is nothing more than to thank the city for allowing the realization of this festival again, its organizers who year after year strive to refine every detail and their assistants to create the atmosphere of friendship and brotherhood that finally makes the event a success .
