How and how long are young people allowed to visit the Long Night?

The German law concerning minors in public applies, the Jugendschutzgesetz. This means that young persons over 16 may take part in the event without accompanying adult until midnight at the latest. Should 16 and 17-year-olds want to stay longer, then – and the following also applies to all those not yet 16 years old – a legal guardian or person authorized as such must take over supervision. This can be parents or, for example, older siblings, uncle or aunt. The supervision duty should be clearly delegated by the parents for the event, confirmed in writing with a telephone number under which the parents can be reached. For this purpose you can use the Formular des Jugendamtes München (form by the Youth Office Munich). Further details can be found at their website.

What do I see on the poster motif?

KIADI KIBENI – THE PLASTIC WOMAN

Composed of cups and cosmetics containers, this mask costume denounces the pollution of planet earth by plastic waste. It was created in 2023 by artist Sarah Ndele from the DR Congo and is now on display at the Museum Fünf Kontinente.
