Nine-day anniversary celebration with party, cabaret, and ceremonial act
The Engelsberg Volunteer Fire Brigade in the Traunstein district is celebrating its 150th founding anniversary in 2026 – the brigade was founded around 1876. The anniversary is being celebrated with a large-scale festival spanning nine days, involving the entire community of Engelsberg.
The program combines tradition and entertainment: It begins with a lively "Kübelspritzenparty" with DJs, followed by a cabaret evening with the Brettl-Spitzen, the "Hopfen- und Traubenfest" with a live band, a fire brigade vintage car meeting with a family day and "Gstanzlsingen" (traditional sung verses), and a festive Sunday with a church service and "Bierzeltstimmung" (beer tent atmosphere) with the Andreasbläser.
Fire brigade anniversaries are among the major social events in a community in Upper Bavaria. The 150th founding festival of the FF Engelsberg honours the voluntary commitment of generations of firefighters and also serves as a meeting point for clubs, patron fire brigades, and guests from the entire region.
