Giant retailer, XXXLutz, commemorates its 80th anniversary with a stunning rooftop concert from Peter Maffay in the city of Würzburg, for the benefit of underprivileged children.
In the heart of Würzburg, Germany, a unique charity event took place amidst the picturesque vineyards, drawing approximately 3000 visitors. This special one-of-a-kind event was a testament to the enduring partnership between music legend Peter Maffay and furniture retail giant, XXXLutz [1][2].
The event marked the 80th joint venture between the charity and XXXLutz, a furniture store chain that has been operating in Würzburg since 2009. With over 12,000 employees in Germany alone, XXXLutz operates 57 XXXLutz furniture stores and 50 maxdome trend furniture stores here, and has a global presence with over 400 stores across 14 European countries, employing more than 27,300 people [3].
The collaboration, which has spanned an impressive 25 years, has been a beacon of reliability, great trust, and extraordinary consistency. Helmuth Goetz, a representative of XXXLutz, emphasised that the goal of the company is to give back a portion of their success to those less fortunate [4].
The event featured a concert by Peter Maffay and his band, along with culinary delights by top chefs Alexander Herrmann and Michi Seitz. In keeping with tradition, all revenues from the open-air event will be donated to the charity and the Peter Maffay Foundation [5].
Peter Maffay, in his speech, expressed his desire to reach 100 joint events with XXXLutz, highlighting the incredible loyalty, great creativity, and enormous sustainability of this partnership [1].
Beyond the annual events, the partnership has also seen XXXLutz delivering and assembling furniture for the foundation's houses in Germany, Spain, and Romania [6]. Over the past 25 years, this collaboration has raised seven-figure sums for the cause [7].
Maffay regularly transforms XXXLutz furniture stores into concert halls, cooks with top chefs for a good cause, or organizes Tabaluga children's festivals with the corporate group [8].
As XXXLutz celebrates its 80th anniversary this year, the partnership between Maffay and the company continues to be a shining example of cultural and philanthropic collaboration, combining top-tier music events with financial support for children and families in Würzburg for over two decades [1][4].
