SENSATION in Münster: Sommersend 2025 with record rides!
Tuesday, July 17, 2025, begins with a breathtaking event that has the city of Münster in turmoil! The legendary Sommersend has opened its doors, and the spectacle unfolding on Schlossplatz is simply INCREDIBLE! With a festival area measuring a gigantic 32,000 m², the event stretches across limitless dimensions and attracts an estimated 250,000 visitors - so many people that you could even see the goings-on from space!
This sensational event beats all previous folk festivals with a record number of innovations and attractions! The focus is on the overwhelming 42 meter high “No Limit” swing, which challenges even the bravest adrenaline junkie with dizzying loops and overhead turns. The “Air Power” ride, a rotating swing over 20 meters high, can also be experienced for the first time and provides shocking highlights!
Fascinating rides and incredible highlights
And as if that wasn't enough, the “Tiki Ball” water polo facility awaits visitors, inviting young and old to run across the water in its huge, transparent ball! The heart of the attractions is the family roller coaster “Anthony’s Adventure”, which runs in front of the majestic castle for the first time and impresses with an extra long track!
- 42 m hohe Schaukel „No Limit“
- Drehschaukel „Air Power“ in 20 m Höhe
- Familienachterbahn „Anthony’s Abenteuer“
- Wasserballanlage „Tiki Ball“
- XXL-Laufgeschäft „Spaßallee“ mit 80 Hindernissen
- 33 m hohes Sonnenkraft-Riesenrad „Solar Wheel“
There are also classic attractions such as the eagerly awaited bumper car “Highway No 1”, which provides thrills right on Schlossplatz! The challenge is enormous, and it's something every thrill-seeker should definitely experience!
Safe fun and a great program
But that's not enough! On Sunday, July 20th, there will be an exclusive autograph session with the USC Münster volleyball players! You shouldn't miss this unique opportunity to get up close and personal with your sports heroes!
The organizers made sure that the safety of all guests was their top priority. The entire area is generously fenced, and admission controls at four entrances guarantee a safe stay. No dangerous items will be tolerated! No glass bottles, no weapons – just lots of fun!
