Under this year's motto "We can achieve anything!" , the Girls' Garden offers a free program with creative, movement-oriented, and informative activities. The goal is to empower girls and create spaces for interaction and participation.
The girls' garden will be opened by Mayor Barbara Akdeniz , who emphasizes the long-standing commitment:
" For over two decades, the girls' garden has been a meeting place where girls can try things out, strengthen themselves and develop their potential. Empowerment here means not only participation, but also active involvement – an important contribution to a fairer and more diverse urban society."
Highlights of the afternoon include a movement and craft course that promotes strength and dexterity, as well as activities such as:
- the mobile bicycle kitchen “Schnibbel Schlitten” by Foodsharing
- a large bouncy cushion
- the popular “Heinerinnen Quiz” *

Furthermore, the new Darmstadt Youth Parliament information tent . This is a participatory format for which young people are encouraged to run for office in the September elections .
All activities are supervised by qualified staff from the girls' working group. Food and drinks are free , and a separate lounge area is available for accompanying adults. Registration is not required – girls can simply drop in, participate, and enjoy themselves.
