What you can expect

United by the motto “Getting involved and getting the job done”, more than 40 participants from the civil protection community will showcase their capabilities from 10:00 to 17:00 at Schlossplatz in the centre of Wiesbaden’s old town.

An exciting programme with a variety of demonstrations, join-in events and much more is waiting for you. Entry to the event is free of charge.

Join in – volunteer for the benefit of us all!

Without volunteers, our society would not be what it is. Volunteering is an important pillar of our civil protection system. You too have skills that can be helpful.

Civil protection affects us all.

All those who prepare for emergencies help us to better manage crises such as natural disasters or extreme weather events.

In an emergency, this helps you to keep a clear head, saving valuable time and ultimately saving human lives.
