The whole old town celebrates
The Altstadtfest Erding is one of the highlights of the Erding summer. On the first Friday and Saturday in July, the entire historic city center transforms into a giant beer garden. The landlords of the city center establishments move stages and benches outdoors, and the public strolls through the old town alleys with beer, delicacies, and music.
Five stages, many styles
There is live music of various kinds on five stages: Latin American sounds, rock and pop, as well as traditional Bavarian music. A DJ also spins records at Kleiner Platz. Various stallholders offer culinary specialties – the festival is a mix of a city festival, beer garden, and open-air concert.
