Family Sunday As has become the tradition, Aarhus Festival closes with events for the whole family when Family Sunday is celebrated in Tivoli Friheden. There will be special family-friendly activities throughout the day.
Tivoli Friheden, Skovbrynet 1 8 September, 12.00-17.00 Tickets to Tivoli Friheden are sold at the entrance
CAMPISTERNE (THE CAMPERS) Campisterne is a comically absurd street theatre act for the whole family about life at a campsite. With military precision, the campers roll onto their preferred camping spot to enter a leisurely existence of freedom – and the smell of meat on the barbecue. In front of Hermans, 14.00-14.20, 15.00-15.20 and 16.00-16.20
PHYSICS SHOW Test the forces of physics with electricity, light, sound, clouds and explosions. Physics students of Aarhus University entertain while explaining nature’s enigmas. Drop by and find the answers to the great mysteries of the universe. By the swings, 13.00-16.00
RAFFUS You may run into the cheerful, quirky and amicable clown Raffus anywhere in Tivoli Friheden as he ties balloon animals, performs his tricks and gets caught by a giant gorilla. Anywhere in the grounds, 12.00-17.00
THE THEATRE BUS Something is in the air when Granddad tells stories of days long gone and with a melancholy touch recalls odd details and near-forgotten tales. Gråt er godt (Grey is good) is unusual theatre in the Theatre Bus, where the sky is blue and the seats are covered in stardust. Aimed primarily at kids aged 3-7, the performance lasts around 15 minutes. In front of the outdoor stage (Friluftsscenen), 12.00, 12.30, 13.00, 13.30, 15.00, 15.30, 16.00 and 16.30
SNEHVIDE (SNOW WHITE) Snow White is the most beautiful king’s daughter in the entire world. With skin as pale as snow, hair as black as ebony and lips as red as blood, she provokes the jealousy of her evil stepmother. Snow White flees into the forest and meets the seven dwarfs. She must endure much misfortune before she meets her prince. The green oasis next to the Ferris wheel, 14.30-15.05 and 15.30-16.05
MALTE KNAPP Malte Knapp is an extremely agile biker who has performed in places such as Las Vegas with his incredible bike act. On Family Sunday, Malte Knapp cycles throughout Tivoli Friheden, juggling while he steers his five-metre-high bike! Anywhere in the grounds, 13.00-17.00
