The Golden Leaves Festival is our personal declaration of love for music. Spread Love For Great Music is not only the self-declared motto of the boutique and lovers' festival in Darmstadt, but an internalized motto under which hand-picked newcomers and established greats of the indie scene have been united for 12 years.
Golden Leaves not only celebrates the carefully curated performances on its stages, but also constantly creates new points of contact and levels of experience between artists and audience. Every visitor, musician and volunteer is a necessary part of the festival - an emotional experience designed to sharpen the value of culture within our society and a goal with which the festival is in constant flux. However, it does not try to deny its DIY roots, because to this day, Golden Leaves would not be possible without the voluntary commitment of its volunteers and selfless supporters. Their rigorous commitment is evident not only in the lovingly designed grounds of Kranichstein Castle Park, but also in every single encounter on the grounds. Everything comes together here for one weekend.
The idea behind the Golden Leaves Festival is based on the work of Live at Bedroomdisco e.V., which has been designing and implementing socio-cultural event concepts in off-locations since 2012. With 5000 visitors, the aim is to maintain a family approach that, in addition to sustainability and diversity, attempts a regenerative alternative to the megalomania of huge, mainstream festivals. We want to pursue a golden utopia that every participant can be proud of. Because at the end of the day, our vision is still about music and love. Spread Love For Great Music that is.
