This year, the focus is on one of the most pressing topics: climate-regulating concepts and sustainable solutions for urban movement spaces. Be inspired, discover the latest technologies and experience first-hand what innovative approaches to climate adaptation in the city centre look like at the special show ‘Stadtoase’.

The urban oasis - sustainability meets innovation

Sponge city: Intelligent solutions for water management

Ready for the city of the future? One focus of the urban oasis is the concept of the sponge city, with which cities are responding to the challenges of climate change. State-of-the-art solutions such as green roofs, retention systems and permeable paving help to store water efficiently and provide cooling effects in urban areas. Even sports fields are being transformed into multifunctional areas - for more greenery and fewer heat islands. Find out how these strategies can inspire your projects.

Water play equipment as the highlight of the city oasis

Water meets creativity - the Stadtoase shows how interactive water play equipment offers much more than just fun. Immerse yourself in a world of innovative technologies: from mist systems and interactive fountains to multifunctional water surfaces. These highlights create recreational areas in the centre of the city and actively contribute to improving the climate.

Provide refreshment, exercise and encounters - for young and old.

The power of shading: creating cool oases

Climate change requires new approaches to the design of urban spaces. Another focus of the urban oasis is the topic of shading. Suppliers will be presenting solutions that enhance outdoor areas with shading elements and noticeably improve the microclimate. Especially in combination with water, unique synergies are created that not only make cities more functional, but also more attractive.

Experience how playful and functional components together characterise a sustainable future.
