Covid 19 Update: ANNOTOPIA Fantasy Festivals 2021 (08.07.2021)

For the upcoming ANNOTOPIA festivals applies:

We assure you that we as organizers will do everything to ensure a proper and safe course of the events.

We are currently working intensively – together with the authorities – on appropriate concepts so that everyone can participate in ANNOTOPIA without worrying about their own health. The execution of the events will be accompanied by comprehensive hygiene and protection measures in order to be able to guarantee the best possible health protection for all participants.

We ask all visitors and contributors for their support in the implementation and compliance. Everyone can make a decisive contribution to a successful hygiene concept with their responsible behavior. We count on your discipline and personal responsibility and hope that the ANNOTOPIA festivals will be another step on the way to normality. Please pay attention to the organizational information in the run-up and on the festival area.

Admission is expected for those, who are vaccinated, tested or recovered.

In addition, please note that it is mandatory to comply with the hygiene and protection regulations of the respective state government in force on the day of the event. Since the exact development of the incidence values cannot be planned and predicted, there may be further facilitations or additional restrictions on the part of the governments and responsible authorities in the weeks and days leading up to the events. We therefore point out already now that permits may be withdrawn due to the pandemic. We will publish further information and organizational instructions for the ANNOTOPIA visit here on our website in good time before the events. Please inform yourselves in advance.

You will find the current regulations for the three festivals in time on the individual festival pages here on the homepage.

HERE you can find the regulations for Bad Mergentheim.

Covid 19-Update (29.03.2021)

Dear friends of ANNOTOPIA,

we would like to provide you with better news, but the pandemic situation simply does not allow it at the moment.

Unfortunately, the ANNOTOPIA Festival in Lüdinghausen cannot take place on 08 + 09 May 2021.
According to § 13 (3) of the new Corona Protection Ordinance of the Federal State of North Rhine-Westphalia, which applies from today, large festival events are prohibited until at least 31 May 2021.

But of course we will do everything we can to ensure that Lüdinghausen does not have to do without ANNOTOPIA for a second year in a row.
That’s why we’re presenting you with the alternative date at the same time:

We look forward to seeing you in Lüdinghausen on 02 + 03 October 2021!

Tickets already purchased (for 2020 and 2021) will of course remain valid. Everything you need to know about ticket refunds can be found HERE.

Take care!
Your Team ANNOTOPIA

ANNOTOPIA comes to Bad Mergentheim for the first time in summer 2021

Exterior grounds of the Residenzschloss will become a spectacle mile for the whole family / State Palaces and Gardens of Baden-Württemberg, city administration and noa entertainment cooperate

“The great monuments have always captured the imagination of visitors – this inspiring atmosphere is what makes a historic place like the Residenzschloss Mergentheim and its park so special,” says Michael Hörrmann, Managing Director of the State Palaces and Gardens Baden-Württemberg. “With ANNOTOPIA we can offer space for a new event format – and that is one of our central concerns: Opening up new accesses to the historical monuments”.

ANNOTOPIA is also an exciting new project for the city, as Lord Mayor Udo Glatthaar emphasises: “As a concert backdrop, the outdoor area of our palace is already well-known and popular. Now the area including the park will be presented in a completely new and literally ‘fantastic’ way. Together with our new partner SSG and with noa entertainment we can set fresh impulses. I am delighted about this and I myself am looking forward to this experience”.

Together with Kersten Hahn, head of the cultural office, Lord Mayor Udo Glatthaar sees the preparations for the project as a strong signal to look ahead and to get started again as soon as possible in Bad Mergentheim. “With ANNOTOPIA we are also expanding our target group and positioning Bad Mergentheim once again as a location for innovative event formats,” says Kersten Hahn.

3 x ANNOTOPIA in 2021 !!!

Now for the good news:

After a whole year without ANNOTOPIA in 2020 we are looking forward to THREE festivals next year.

The two established locations in Lüdinghausen and Rotenburg a. d. Fulda will be joined in August by Residential Palace Park in Bad Mergentheim.

So from August 21 to 22, 2021, the time has come: Premiere of the ANNOTOPIA Fantasy Festival in the south of our republic. Look forward to impressive entertainment and fascination in the usual ANNOTOPIA way for the whole family at special, discounted premiere prices! More information will follow shortly.
