A shining family experience at the Bollwerksturm

On Friday, November 6, 2026, the Sparkassen-Lichtermeer will transform the square at the Bollwerksturm in Heilbronn into a radiant stage for children, parents, and grandparents. The regional lantern parade is among the largest in the region and invites families to an atmospheric evening filled with shared time, children's laughter, and much anticipation.

Lantern magic for small and large hands

Starting from 3:00 PM, lanterns will be available for children without a lantern. Those who bring a self-designed lantern will be part of a particularly personal family experience. The varied stage program keeps the atmosphere lively until the start of the parade, making the wait enjoyable and exciting for children.

Exploring together on two family-friendly routes

The lantern parade offers a shortened route of about one kilometer as well as a longer route of approximately two kilometers. Both paths are designed so that families with children can experience the sea of light at their own pace. The short route leads over the Adolf-Cluss Bridge to the experimenta and back via the ZEAG Bridge; the longer route additionally heads towards the youth hostel, over the Bleichinsel Bridge through the Campus Park and back to the Bollwerksturm.
