Summer lounge and First Saturday”: the city celebrates enjoyment and leisure!
On August 22, 2025, Frankenthal will be transformed into an urban chill oasis. From 1 p.m. to 10 p.m., deck chairs, relaxing lounge beats, refreshing drinks and a summery atmosphere invite you to unwind. The event is organized by the operators of the popular beach bar in the Frankenthal lido and is aimed at both locals and visitors to the city. The motto here is: switch off, enjoy and experience the summer flair.
But that's not all! As part of the “First Saturday” pilot project, AUTUMN MAGIC will be celebrated in the city center on the first Saturdays of the month. The organizers want to bring a breath of fresh air and new impulses to the city. Exciting activities and specials are planned until the end of the year to enliven the pedestrian zone. Further details can be found on the city website www.frankenthal.de/innenstadt to find.
Parking and attractions
At the heart of this initiative is the collaboration with retailers and restaurants in Frankenthal's city center. Particularly practical: Visitors can park for up to two hours free of charge at participating parking facilities. This includes:
- Tiefgarage Willy-Brandt Anlage
- Parkhaus am Bahnhof
- P7 am CongressForum
- Parkhaus im City Center
- Parkhaus Birkenmeier/Hotel Central
- Parkplatz am Brauhaus zur Post
After a relaxing stay in the summer lounge, you have the opportunity to visit the open air cinema in the Erkenberruine. The current program and ticket prices are on the website www.lux.kinos.de available. Frankenthal therefore offers an all-round successful leisure package for the whole family.
New parking rates and further information
Another highlight of the “parking pilot phase” is the introduction of a night tariff that makes it possible to park for half the daily price. This is a welcome relief for night owls and helps keep the city center lively even after dark.
For anyone who needs more information about parking, check out the city website www.frankenthal.de/parken a practical starting point. Don't miss out on these summer offers and enjoy the diverse options that Frankenthal has to offer!
