A successful start to the new year
A musical highlight at the beginning of the year took place on January 4, 2025 in the Bürgerzentrum Weiterstadt: The traditional New Year's concert, which this year was themed "Viennese Classics", delighted almost 400 spectators.
The festive event was opened by Mayor Ralf Möller, who, in his address, emphasized the importance of music and culture for the community and wished those present a happy new year. The Johann Strauss Orchestra, one of the most renowned ensembles in the region, enchanted the guests with a program that, in honor of Johann Strauss's 200th birthday, highlighted many of his works.
Of particular note is the excellent cooperation with the "Tour of Hope," whose dedicated volunteers ensured a smooth beverage supply. The proceeds from the event were donated to childhood cancer research, and a considerable sum was raised for this important cause. A heartfelt thank you goes to EDEKA Winkler and Thiemo Hamm for their generous donations in kind.
