The Garden Party (German: Gartenpartei), until 2017 known as the Magdeburg Garden Party (German: Magdeburger Gartenpartei), is a minor political party in Germany that is primarily active in the city of Magdeburg. It was founded by allotment owners in 2013 who were opposed to development plans by the city that would have led to eviction of their allotments. The party has been represented on Magdeburg city council since 2014.

Organization

The Garden Party in the Magdeburg city council formed a faction together with the Tierschutzallianz.

Though officially a separate political party, the Garden Party of Frankfurt am Main (Gartenpartei Ffm), founded in 2019, de facto acts as a local brauch of the Garden Party, both parties working closely together. Gartenpartei Ffm participated in two Frankfurt local elections, with its lead candidate Tilo Schwichtenberg, in 2021 and 2023 respectively.

Election results

The Garden Party was not able to participate in the 2019 European Parliament election in Germany due to not submitting documents in time.
