Terms and conditions for guests attending Rooftop Day Frankfurt
1. Basic principles
These terms and conditions govern the legal relationship between guests (you) and the City of Frankfurt am Main – represented by the City Marketing Department and Tourismus+Congress GmbH – (us/we) in connection with Rooftop Day. Your own terms and conditions are expressly excluded. Please read the conditions of participation carefully. If you have any questions, you can find further information at www.rooftopday.de/faq. You can also contact us at rooftopday@stadt-frankfurt.de.
With Resolution §4994, the City Council approved Proposal E218_2024 and commissioned the Magistrate to introduce a Rooftop Day as a recurring event in Frankfurt am Main. The City Marketing Department was entrusted with the implementation and is organising the event together with the municipal Tourismus+Congress GmbH. Rooftop Day Frankfurt will take place for the first time on 23 August 2025 in Frankfurt am Main (throughout the city, with a focus on the city centre).
The aim is to highlight Frankfurt's unique architecture. The large, concentrated number of high-rise buildings and accessible rooftops makes Frankfurt unique in Germany.
On the first Frankfurt Rooftop Day (Rooftop Day), we are offering Frankfurt institutions, associations and professional event locations the opportunity to host events on their rooftops (rooftop terraces, upper floors or balconies) and open them to the public (guests), offering their own events (music, culinary delights, readings, yoga, etc.). The locations do not have to be professionally operated, but can also be professional event locations. The hosts are free to organise the specific details of the event. The City of Frankfurt operates the website www.rooftopday.de, where you can find the hosts' programme and plan your personal Rooftop Day.
2. No entitlement to the Rooftop Day taking place
The Rooftop Day will take place even in bad weather. However, there is no legal entitlement to the event taking place. If we cancel the Rooftop Day for reasons such as storms, official intervention or safety concerns, we will announce this immediately on our website.
3. Intellectual property rights
All copyrights, trademarks and property rights as well as other rights to the website and its contents, as well as to photos and videos created or commissioned by us, remain with us or our licensors. Any modification, reproduction, reproduction, publication or transfer to third parties without our written consent is prohibited.
4. Disclaimer of warranty and liability
The individual events only establish a legal relationship between you and the hosts. The City of Frankfurt am Main is not involved in the implementation and therefore not in the legal relationship, but merely provides the website and the programme with the event information. The City of Frankfurt is not liable for claims of any kind between you and the host or other third parties in connection with the individual events of the hosts. Such claims on your part must be asserted exclusively against the respective host.
The City of Frankfurt am Main does not guarantee the uninterrupted availability of the website or the accuracy, completeness, appropriateness and timeliness of the content provided there. This content is checked with the greatest possible care, but may contain errors. References and links to third-party websites lead to external content that the City does not endorse and for which it is not liable.
Otherwise, the City of Frankfurt am Main shall be liable without limitation for damages resulting from injury to life, limb, health, guarantees and/or cardinal obligations, as well as for damages resulting from intent or gross negligence on the part of its legal representatives, employees or vicarious agents. In the event of a breach of cardinal obligations, liability for simple negligence shall be limited to the foreseeable damage typical for this type of contract. The City of Frankfurt has no further liability.
5. Data protection and image rights
Please refer to our general privacy policy for information on how the City of Frankfurt am Main handles your personal data.
By participating in Rooftop Day, you give your consent for us or photographers commissioned by us to take photos and videos of you and for us to use these for marketing purposes (e.g. for aftermovies, advertising for future Rooftop Days or other events).
6. Final provisions
Should any provision of these conditions of participation be or become invalid in whole or in part, this shall not affect the validity of the remaining provisions. In this case, the parties shall replace the invalid provision with a valid provision that comes closest to the economic purpose of the invalid provision. The same applies to loopholes.
The law of the Federal Republic of Germany shall apply. Subject to mandatory statutory provisions, the exclusive place of jurisdiction for all disputes arising from or in connection with Rooftop Day Frankfurt shall be Frankfurt am Main.
