There is tv on the table and there is a red carpet on the floor. There are two doors and there are photo frames on the wall. On the top it's written "OPPO".

30,000 Euros for charitable purposes

The 2025 Hanau Advent calendar has sold out completely, raising €30,000 for local youth projects. All 8,999 copies were snapped up by supporters eager to win one of 878 prizes. The event, now in its 20th year, continues to be a beloved tradition in the city.

This year’s calendar featured a design by Gari Singh, a student at Theodor-Heuss-Schule, guided by teacher Ms. Heger-Zimmermann. The prizes included a JURA coffee machine, a wellness hotel stay, and a DEKA voucher, with daily draws announced in the Hanauer Anzeiger, on the event’s website, and via the City of Hanau’s Instagram Stories.

Winners can collect their prizes from the Service Center between January 2 and 31, open Monday to Saturday, 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. The Lions Clubs of Hanau and Hanau Brothers Grimm recently presented cheques to three youth centres: the Hanau Family and Play Center, Lamboypark Youth Center, and Weststadt Youth Center. Mayor Dr. Maximilian Bieri thanked the Lions Clubs, local retailers, hospitality businesses, and citizens for their contributions. He also reminded those who missed out to prepare for the 2026 edition, which will again be organised by Hanau Marketing GmbH.

The Advent calendar has supported children’s and youth projects in Hanau for two decades. This year’s success ensures continued funding for local initiatives. Organisers are already planning next year’s event to keep the tradition alive.
