This year, the Hamburg Summer Dom drew in approximately 1.4 million attendees, as per the economic authority's announcement, mere hours before its conclusion on Sunday. Economics Senator Melanie Leonhard (SPD) praised the event, stating, "Few events can as effectively tie Hamburg's rich history to the present while bringing people together as impressively as the Hamburg Dom does. It's beyond just a fair; it's a cherished and vibrant tradition."
For a whole month, 253 showman businesses delivered excitement and enjoyment. Various novelties lured visitors to the Feldstraße bunker site, like the Nordic Tower, a tall, lighthouse-like chain carousel reaching 80 meters high.
