Celebrating 25 Years of Diversity and Togetherness: Lübeck's Intercultural Weeks 2025

The House of Cultures in Lübeck is marking a significant milestone as it celebrates its 25th anniversary. As part of the celebrations, the city will host the Intercultural Weeks 2025, a series of events that aim to showcase the city's commitment to diversity and togetherness.

The Intercultural Weeks, which take place under the patronage of Mayor Jan Lindenau, have become a staple in Lübeck's cultural calendar. Year after year, they demonstrate that Lübeck is a city of encounters and togetherness. This year's events, occurring during a time when democratic values are under pressure, according to the SPD faction, hold even greater significance.

Aydin Candan, spokesperson for integration policy of the SPD faction, explains that the Intercultural Weeks demonstrate lived diversity and a strong community in Lübeck. He reiterates that migration and mutual cultural respect are closely intertwined.

The House of Cultures, an open space for exchange, respect, and participation for 25 years, is organising a diverse program for the Intercultural Weeks 2025. The program includes concerts, creative offers, dance, exhibitions, festivals, lectures, and discussion formats, running until October 3rd, under the motto "for this!".

Dr. Marek Lengen, a member of the SPD faction, thanks the many committed people in the cultural sector for their long-standing efforts to shape Lübeck as a city of diversity and joy. He emphasises the need for political support and funding for the House of Cultures.

The SPD parliamentary group has designated Martina Koeppen as the patron of the events of the Intercultural Weeks 2025 in Lübeck. The SPD faction congratulates the House of Cultures on its special jubilee and invites all citizens to visit the events and set a strong signal for an open, solidarity-based, and democratic society.

The events during the Intercultural Weeks 2025 demonstrate the city's commitment to diversity and togetherness. The House of Cultures stands as a testament to Lübeck's dedication to lived diversity and a strong community. As the city celebrates this milestone, it also reaffirms its commitment to fostering a culture of respect, exchange, and participation for all its residents.
