The Hanover Culture Kaleidoscope was created in the preparatory phase for the world exhibition after the Hanover Business Circle had issued the motto "Expo 2000 - Hanover as the host of the world" and offered a prize for suggestions for its implementation. As a result - as an alternative to the planned major international events limited to the Expo site - a concept for the presentation of regional culture by local artists was created. During the entire Expo, a contrasting program with theater, dance and cabaret as well as music from classical to jazz and blues to modern music was performed every evening in and around Hanover .

The performances for the “ kaleidoscope ” were deliberately aimed at authentic living and cultural spaces. Part of the program in unusual locations was the direct exchange with the artists. These included the magician DESiMO , actors like Dieter Hufschmidt , Bengt Kiene or Alexander May , musicians like Andreas Burckhardt , theater groups like Commedia Futura , philosophers like Gerhard Stamer or cross-disciplinary artists like GEDOK Hannover .

Even before the presenter reported Hanna Legatis in the weekly for the North German Radio broadcast television program Expo magazine example, via the A Cappella -Show the ensemble Ferrari peck in the Waschkaue the visitor mine Kloster tunnel Barsinghausen . Other programs reported on performances of classical music in the greenhouse of the vegetable farmer Friedhelm Nötel in Jeinsen or the series of concerts on the Stemmen manor . In the barn bestuhlten the guested Chamber Orchestra Hannover under the direction of Adam Kostecki works by Luigi Boccherini and the four seasons of Vivaldi . The performance on the estate of the Jan Friedrich von Rössing family was complemented by the appearance of the baroque ensemble in Herrenhausen as the “court company of King George V ” in historical costumes from the time of the Kingdom of Hanover . After the chamber music in Hof Schnehage in Hemmingen , there were culinary specialties from Lower Saxony.

For the concept of the culture kaleidoscope, the American George Speckert was awarded the Hanover Prize of the Hanoverian Business Circle by the Expo General Commissioner Birgit Breuel in November 1995 .
