Registration

Registration for the Turnfest Leipzig 2025 is closed!

We are excited about the high number of registrations and can hardly wait to spend unforgettable moments with you!

It was possible to purchase a participant card until the 3rd of March via the new online registration system Turnfest-Portal to register for competitions, performances, accommodation and more. Since the invoice was sent out, the regulations as described in the general terms and conditions apply.

We sent the Turnfest documents by post on the 5th and 6th of May to the German participants. International participants have to pick up their documents from the Participant Management at Exhibition Centre Leipzig. 

Please note that the booked academy workshops and booked services via a starting team are not printed on the participant card. The timetable from the Turnfest-Portal of the club registering for the competition must be used as verification. There will also be lists of participants on site at the venues. We would also like to point out that the competition cards for the Elective Competition ‘Mix’ and the flag ribbons were not sent out with the Turnfest documents. These must be collected on site during the Turnfest from the Participant Management Office.

Now, it is only possible to purchase the participant card without other services such as accommodation, competitions etc. during the Turnfest on site at the Participant Management Office. Otherwise, the Turnfest-Day-Tickets for the respective event days are available for day visitors, which can be purchased in the Turnfest-Ticketshop or on site at the exhibition centre in Leipzig. Here you will find an overview of how the Turnfest-Day-Ticket differs from the festival ticket:
