On a warm August evening, with the latest Wes Anderson flick Asteroid City, the 29th edition of the festival came to an end. Around 6,400 spectators attended the 29th edition of the Freiburg open-air cinema. This means a slight decrease compared to 2022, when around 6,800 people made the pilgrimage to Freiburg for the open-air cinema. However, for Xavier Pattaroni, the event’s programmer, the result is “more than satisfactory”.
Luck with the weather with one exception
Apart from an almost autumnal interlude at the end of July, the event benefited fully from the ideal weather. However, the open-air cinema felt the strong competition from other festivals. Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny attracted the largest audience to the Freiburg Bollwerk, closely followed by Asteroid City. Mission Impossible 7 and Elementary share third place.
The 30th edition of the festival is scheduled to take place in 2024 in the same period, the exact dates are not yet fixed.
