On Wednesday, November 11, 2026, there will be temporary restrictions in the area around Schillerplatz and the surrounding neighborhood due to the start of Carnival celebrations, which will include the reading of the “Fool’s Constitution.”

Visitors and residents are asked to plan ahead for possible traffic disruptions and restrictions on access and mobility, and to avoid the affected area if possible. The state capital of Mainz asks for your understanding regarding these necessary measures.
