Rosenmontagszug 2023 in Düsseldorf: A new route due to a construction site

Shrove Monday starts at 12 p.m.

The carnival procession starts on Corneliusstraße, but then it does not continue on the usual route.

Instead, the route is returned from Graf-Adolf-Platz via Graf-Adolf-Straße and Hüttenstraße back to Corneliusstraße.

From here it goes via Bilker Allee to Bilker Bahnhof, where the train dissolves as usual.
