The museums and the museum embankment are not only the namesake of this magnificent three-day festival, but also its main attraction. Imagine strolling along the banks of the River Main on a warm summer evening, a colourful world of art and culture spreading out before you. This is Frankfurt's magnificent Museum Embankment Festival.
Every year since the festival's inception in the 1980s, the riverside promenade is transformed into a lively stage for culture and the arts. What began as an idea to highlight Frankfurt's many museums is now one of the city's most popular cultural celebrations. Every year at the end of August, visitors come here from near and far to experience culture's colourful diversity.
