Services offered by dm-drogerie markt
In the children's and culture area, the SUNDANCE sun milk bar is ready with a selection of sun care products. In addition, Balea's shimmer products ensure the perfect festival glow.
Mobile dm sun protection teams are out and about on the hill, around the lake and in the sports park, making sure that everyone is well protected from the sun. You can recognise the sun protection teams by their yellow SUNDANCE back flags.
The changing station with nursing corner in the children's and culture area offers parents and babies a protected place to freshen up or breastfeed. Parents can find out about dm's baby range and the glückskind family companion and register online if they are interested.
On dm-FEST Sunday, there will be a meet & greet with the two practising midwives and young mothers from dm's partner brand HALLOHEBAMME, Anja and Marie, from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m. and from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m.
On the glückskind stage in the children's and culture area, there are regular hands-on workshops and great painting and craft activities for children up to the age of 12 – offered by the dm initiative ‘Singende Kindergärten’ (Singing Kindergartens) and dm's cooperation partners Music Swap Lab, Weltretterbande e. V. and vhs Karlsruhe e. V.
In addition, Saubär and Polli the polar bear regularly visit the dm tents and are available for selfies, which the dm team will gladly print out free of charge in the dm photo world.
What would a festival be without the right festival look?
On the dm stage by the lake, dm colleagues will be using trend !t up products to give visitors freshly painted nails, while stylists will be using alverde NATURKOSMETIK products to give them a natural fresh-up.
Bearded men won't be left out this year either – they will be pampered with products from the brands Balea MEN, alverde NATURKOSMETIK MEN and SEINZ.
In addition to the styling activities offered by the dm brands, the stylists from dm's exclusive partner brand Langhaarmädchen will once again be conjuring up popular festival braided hairstyles. You can capture the finished looks in front of the beautiful Langhaarmädchen selfie spots.
You will find the campaign at the pretty pink Langhaarmädchen styling bus opposite the dm stage by the lake or at the large styling bus to the left of the glückskind stage in the children's and culture area.
To the right and left of the dm stage by the lake, anyone interested in working at dm can find out about the wide range of opportunities available. By taking part in the games Alles Paletti, Karlsruhe Scannt, Quizlogicum or Appsolute Suchmission, you will receive station stamps and, depending on the number of games you complete, great giveaways.
Have your photo taken by the dm team in front of our beautiful hill or print out your favourite photo from the FEST directly in one of the dm photo worlds next to the main stage or in the children's and culture area. With your consent, you even have the chance to have your photo displayed on the screens of the main stage during the breaks between performances.
Your sporting spirit is called for at the sports park at the Europahalle – whether it's beanbag tossing or the hanging challenge. Win great giveaways or, as the day's winner, even a product package to take home with you.
Those who prefer a more relaxed atmosphere can refresh themselves at the dm-Deobar and the SUNDANCE self-service bar and relax in the lounge.
