Whit Monday, June 9, 2025: Family Blade Night on Schwanthaler Höhe in Munich (Deutsch, English, Italiano, Français)
Munich. The Munich-based SkateMunich association is hosting a Blade Night during Munich's Children's Cultural Summer: the new organizer will kick off the popular Family Blade Night on Whit Monday, June 9, at 3 p.m. in dry weather at the Alter Messeplatz on Schwanthalerhöhe - behind the Bavaria statue. There will be a short 7-kilometer Rollerblade track for children, teens, and families around Schwanthalerhöhe. Slower skaters can also join in at a "family pace." The colorful pre-event program starts at 12 noon, and information about the sport will be available from 11 a.m. Rollerblades can also be rented on-site. With a little practice, young and old can learn proper skating and braking under professional guidance, as there are three inline skating taster courses. Anyone can join in, and participation is free, as always! Information about the event can be found on the website "bladenight-muenchen.de": bladenight-muenchen.de/sicherheit-und-regeln/
