Workshops and Festivals
The community-owned limited company ZEGG GmbH organises four large-scale festivals each year, attracting several hundred visitors. Most of the work involved in these festivals is carried out on a voluntary basis by the whole community.
Additionally, approx. 120 other workshops and events take place on the site each year, including events organised by both internal and external workshop leaders. These covers topics such as community knowledge, communication, love and sexuality, non-violent communication, empathy, arts and singing.
In total, ZEGG had more than 10,000 overnight stays in 2010, making it the second highest spa tax contributor in the spa town of Bad Belzig. The official host for all these events is ZEGG GmbH and this seminar business is the main source of community income.

Famous quotes containing the word festivals:
“Why wont they let a year die without bringing in a new one on the instant, cant they use birth control on time? I want an interregnum. The stupid years patter on with unrelenting feet, never stopping—rising to little monotonous peaks in our imaginations at festivals like New Year’s and Easter and Christmas—But, goodness, why need they do it?”
—John Dos Passos (1896–1970)
