The protest march will take place on Friday, October 2, 2026, under the slogan “Free as a Cloud” and is open to all girls and women. In addition, anyone who wishes to advocate for girls’ and women’s rights is welcome to join. The march is scheduled to begin at 4:00 p.m. with a short opening speech at Wiesbaden Central Station. The planned route runs from the main train station through downtown Wiesbaden and ends at the Kulturpalast Wiesbaden. In the lead-up to the event, banners and posters will be designed by participants at the participating children’s and youth centers to be carried during the march. 

A brief address by representatives of the two girls’ working groups is scheduled for the opening at 4:00 p.m. On behalf of the City of Wiesbaden, the new Head of Social Affairs, Andreas Kowol, will deliver a welcoming address to the participants.

A joint closing ceremony is planned for around 5:00 p.m. at the Kulturpalast Wiesbaden. This will feature various hands-on activities as well as a closing disco for girls. This part of the event is exclusively for girls and young women.
