Gathering Invitation for the "cinema night with chain cinema" in Dusseldorf (Popcorn included)
In the vibrant city of Düsseldorf, a unique and eco-friendly event is set to return for its third round. The Cargo Bikers, a group of cycling enthusiasts with no commercial purpose, are inviting all cyclists to join them for a 20 km bike ride on April 26th.
This event, now considered a new tradition in Düsseldorf, will take place at various locations throughout the city. One of the notable stops is the station under the Rheinknie Bridge, as depicted in the provided photo.
The Cargo Bikers welcome cyclists of all types, including those on regular bikes, e-bikes, and cargo bikes. The highlight of the event, however, is the cargo bike cinema, where a projector and sound system are neatly packed on a cargo bike. The walls of different bridges and underpasses will serve as screens for this innovative cinema experience.
The event will commence at 8 PM on Saturday, April 26th, at Fürstenplatz, and will conclude there as well. The event is free and no registration is required. The team will be showing short cycling films from the International Cycling Film Festival (ICFF) in Herne.
The Cargo Bikers aim to demonstrate the feasibility of emission-free transport through events like these. They have also initiated other projects, such as the cargo bike polo and the cargo bike cinema.
For those interested in the Cargo Bikers' organized meetups or events, it's recommended to monitor their social media channels or local cycling community boards for the latest announcements, as no detailed schedule is currently available from the provided sources.
The cargo bike cinema event is supported by Velokitchen in Dortmund. Participants are advised to bring rainproof clothing, snacks, drinks, and have time and enthusiasm for this exciting event.
While there are no specific upcoming activities or events explicitly organized by the Cargo Bikers group in Düsseldorf, there are related cycling events and activities in or near Düsseldorf that could be of interest. These include the Rund um die Kö event in Düsseldorf on August 13, 2025, where cyclists of all types participated in races on Königsallee, and the Rad am Ring cycling season kickoff from March 28 to 30, 2025, in Düsseldorf.
