 "Leila Helau" - Carnival in
Leipzig by Leipzig
The shout "Leila Helau" is dedicated to the lioness Leila, maskot of the carnival. The town's animal is the lion, also integrated in the coat of arms.
The best decorated truck gets "s' Leibzscher Bliemchen" (local dialect for the Leipzig Flower) as award. This flower is a golden rose. Leave a Comment

 Honky Tonk Festival by Leipzig
I have been asked by several people what "Honky-Tonk" means. In my eyes it means party, life music and fun, fun, fun. Well, I also looked it up in a dictionary: "Honky-Tonk: "...sleazy and cheap low-class nightclub / a dive..." - I assure you it has never been neither sleazy nor low-class. Leave a Comment

All selected cities are official applicants for the Olympic and Paralympic Games in 2012. The final election of the host will be in Singapore on July 6, 2005.
My hometown didn't get into the top5. I was with ten thousands in the city centre to watch the dicision on one of the huge screens. One second after we knew Leipzig isn't allowed to apply for the Games all people were shocked. They all loudly disapproved the dicision and a lot of tears were rolling through faces.
