VANLIFE FERROPOLIS

Germany`s festival for the
Vanlife & Overlanding Community

21st - 24th of AUGUST 2025

Every year the VANLIFE FESTIVAL celebrates the new, free way of camping on Germany's most exciting campground somewhere between Berlin and Leipzig - on a peninsula in the middle of Lake Gremmin, surrounded by five gigantic open-cast mining excavators.

The festival attracts visitors for up to 4 days with a multifaceted program of a large trade fair, live acts, flea market, workshops and lectures on off-road, overlanding and vanlife, complemented by yoga, stand-up paddle, a program for kids and beach sports on the beaches.
