The central festival takes place around the Altglienick parish church in the town center. A varied program is offered on three live stages, especially at the locations in the parish church of Semmelweisstrasse, the parking lot on the Köpenick corner of Rudower Straße and the net parking lot on Köpenicker Straße. A blocking for traffic is set up on the old Schönefelder Weg to create space for a street festival with numerous stands and a history exhibition.
