Unifest 2025

Dear graduates of the Rheinische Friedrich-Wilhelms-University Bonn,

Your studies mark the end of an important period in your life in which the University of Bonn, your alma mater, played a decisive role. We want to celebrate this important part of your biography together with you.

This year, Unifest will take place on July 5th, on the Hofgartenwiese. There you and your companions will stop at numerous exciting stations. The highlight of the celebration will be the return to traditional program points such as the star march of the faculties as well as the common hat toss.

This will be followed by our anniversary event “Forever Uni Bonn - 20 years of Unifest”, to which you are also cordially invited.

I look forward to your participation and an unforgettable day on the Hofgartenwiese!

Professor Dr. Dr. h.c. Michael Hoch
Rector of the University of Bonn
