Bubble 2026: Stories, Imagination, and Encounters in Bielefeld
On Sunday, October 11, 2026, the Ravensberger Spinnerei in Bielefeld transforms into a vibrant meeting point for fairy tales, language, and international storytelling. The third international storytelling festival Bubble by the Shademakers Carnival Club e.V. invites families, children, and all story lovers to a diverse cultural program.
A festival for curious minds
Starting at 3 PM, a colorful family festival begins with a fairy tale rally, children's book flea market, creative activities, and participatory offerings centered around language and stories. The festival atmosphere thrives on collective discovery: children immerse themselves playfully in new narrative worlds, while adults experience the special connection of culture, theater, and community feeling.
Improvisational theater, live art, and international tales
A special highlight is the three-hour improvisational theater workshop for children aged 8 to 12. Together, characters, scenes, and spontaneous stories are created. The festival connects traditional storytelling with contemporary performance, improvisation, and interactive cultural education.
Illuminated procession through the Ravensberger Park
As the lights are lit at 6 PM, the festival community walks together through the Ravensberger Park. The small illuminated procession creates an atmospheric backdrop and leads into an evening where stories, music, dance, and visual impressions intertwine.
The Long Night of Words
Starting at 7:30 PM, the Long Night of Words opens the stage for a versatile evening program. Improvisational theater, theater, dance, music, stories, and live painting come together, making the festival an extraordinary multi-generational experience. The international focus brings together different languages, perspectives, and forms of storytelling.
