RhEINKULTUR is Germany's biggest free-of-charge festival. In the course of more than 25 years, this event has developed into a real crowd-puller with audiences of up to 200,000 people. They come from all over Germany and adjacent countries to see a multitude of different styles on different stages. RhEINKULTUR offers an open-minded program for open-minded people. RhEINKULTUR is held annually on the last weekend of June or the first weekend of July. The event is financed through beverage sales, sponsor support and public funding by the city of Bonn. In spite of its restricted budget, the RhEINKULTUR team has been able to turn the festival into a huge event which meets all the standards set by commercial festivals. This could not be achieved without the generous help of partners, bands and volunteers alike. RhEINKULTUR is the only event of this size to carry the "Sound For Nature" seal which the festival was awarded for its commitment to conservation and sustainability. 2007 it was one of the few european festivals to receive Yourope's «Green'n'Clean»-Award for environmetal friendly festivals. In 2008 the festival established its own sustainability program "RhEINKULTUR Green Rocks". The high attendance proves that RhEINKULTUR's concept works: it offers a high-quality, multi-faceted program without relying on the very big names.
