Special events in the Park of Gardens are events that are not included in the park entrance fee. These include, for example, evening stage events of the series "Zu Gast im Park" – organized by MITUNSKANNAM.REDEN.

The events "Illumination – Light Magic in the Park," "Playing in the Park," as well as the markets "PflanzenWELTEN im Park," "Genuss im Nordwesten," and "Herbstmarkt im Park" are not considered special events and are included in the park entrance fee.

You can also visit the park during events in the stage area, such as events from the series "Zu Gast im Park" by MITUNSKANNAM.REDEN. Only the area in front of the stage will be closed off for park visitors and reserved for event attendees.

There will also be parallel stage events on some evenings during the Illumination.

A reservation is not required and not possible (except for bus groups).

With the day ticket, you can leave the park multiple times on the same day if you have a day stamp from the ticket counter and return in the evening for the Illumination or to retrieve something from your car.
