At the turn of the year, Constance transforms into a festive stage between the old town, harbor and Lake Constance. Whether atmospheric menus, impressive laser shows or celebrations right by the water - StadtSchönheit offers a varied and atmospheric program to round off the year.
Gourmets can enjoy exclusive New Year's Eve creations in selected establishments: The Konzil invites you to a mulled wine lounge, Ko'Ono, Hafenmeisterei, Brasserie Colette, the Romantikhotel Barbarossa, the RIVA Seerestaurant and the Steigenberger Inselhotel present special multi-course menus and culinary highlights. Those who want to celebrate the transition by dancing will also find numerous offers in Constance. The MS Kreuzlingen will once again become a floating party zone, while the party continues into the early hours of the morning in Steg 4 on the waterfront and in Kantine and Il Boccone.
A highlight of the evening is the big laser show on the market square: colorful, atmospheric and at the same time a sustainable alternative to fireworks. Two shows - at 10.30 pm for families and at midnight with a countdown - immerse the historic city center in a spectacular light show.
For guests who want to spend the New Year in Constance, the Romantikhotel Barbarossa offers a comprehensive New Year's Eve package with indulgence, wellness and special experiences. And even after the long night, an excursion is worthwhile: whether SEALIFE, thermal baths or a ride on the Ferris wheel - Constance opens the New Year with relaxation, views and inspiration.
