It's that time again: on 8 and 9 August 2025, Rüdersdorf cordially invites you to its traditional water festival. Two days full of music, entertainment and activities for young and old await visitors at the Kalksee festival site.
Friday: Party kick-off with hits and atmosphere
Friday evening is all about music and good humour. Admission starts at 6 pm, accompanied by a wide range of food and drink stalls and entertainment stands for the first visitors.
The big pop party starts at 8 pm with DJ Christian Herrmann, supported by guest performances from the Rüdersdorf Carnival Community (RKG). Friday evening ends at midnight.
Saturday: Family celebration and party until late into the night
On Saturday, the water festival opens its doors at 2 p.m. for a colourful family programme. Children can look forward to numerous attractions: bouncy castle, face painting, tattoos, archery, crossbow, can throwing, goal wall, grappling, water rolling, duck fishing and sporting activities provide plenty of fun.
At 3 p.m., the Erkner Male Voice Choir brings seafaring romance to the shore with maritime shanties, before the RKG delights the audience with a children's disco, mermaid dance and a Neptune baptism from 4.15 p.m. onwards.
From 7 pm, the live band "ABÆND & friends" will provide musical highlights, before DJ Christian Herrmann will once again create a party atmosphere from 9 pm to 1 am.
A highlight of the evening is the fireworks display at around 22:30, which is set off over the Kalksee. It is recommended to enjoy the fireworks directly from the festival site, as they will be difficult to see from a distance.
Important information for visitors
Admission: 5.00 euros per person - children up to 12 years receive free admission.
Visitors arriving by car are requested to use the designated car park on Seestraße under the motorway bridge. There are no car parks in the surrounding streets.
Thanks to the large marquee, the water festival is almost independent of the weather - so celebrating in the sun or rain is guaranteed!
The organisers, the Rüdersdorfer Wasserfestfreunde, are looking forward to numerous visitors and an unforgettable weekend at the Kalksee.
