An evening between stage and dance floor
Miss Foxy Bless brings exactly the mix that makes a festival kick-off lively: lip syncs, singing, conferences, and an eye-catching drag aesthetic that cannot be pigeonholed. Her artistic work is closely connected to the queer community and stands for tolerance, acceptance, and the history of drag culture. This promises an event experience that not only entertains but also demonstrates values. ([msfoxybless.com](https://www.msfoxybless.com/))
The Rotunde as an urban meeting point
The Rotunde is made for nights like this: The off-location venue was established in 2017 after the renovation of the former train station and offers space for up to 1,200 people, depending on the format. With a bar, restaurant, outdoor area, and flexible event spaces, the evening becomes a dense urban experience with club nights, concerts, and cultural formats.

Fidena as a festival with history
Since 1958, Fidena has been one of the important addresses for international puppetry in Bochum and the surrounding area. For 2026, the festival is scheduled from May 13 to 21; the program and the start of ticket sales were communicated starting March 26, 2026. The opening party is thus part of an edition that wisely connects tradition and the present. ([fidena.de](https://www.fidena.de/programm/fidena/fidena-2026/mn_48640?utm_source=openai))
