What's happening in April 2025? Events in Leipzig
Ah, April. The month when the weather just can't make up its mind. You freeze in the morning, need sunscreen in the afternoon and it hails in the evening - because why not? But that's exactly what makes April in Leipzig so special. The city wakes up from winter mode, the street cafés fill up, the first brave people sit in the park in T-shirts and shorts (and regret it an hour later), and there's this special energy on the streets: it's time to get going again.
Whether you're in the mood for culture, parties, festivals or concerts in Leipzig - April has a lot on offer. And yes, we know how it goes: You plan to take it all in, but end up on the balcony with a beer in your hand saying "Next weekend, but really!". Don't stress - we've picked out the most exciting events for you so that all you have to do is choose. So: Calendar out, anticipation on, Leipzig is calling! 🚀
