Ansbach's Spring Volksfest
The Ansbach Spring Festival is one of the most important Volksfests in the Middle Franconian region and kicks off the festival season in the independent city of Ansbach (Bavaria, administrative region of Middle Franconia). For over ten days, the exhibition grounds become a magnet for Volksfest enthusiasts from the city and surrounding areas. The City of Ansbach is the organizer.
Rides and Festival Atmosphere
Numerous attractions await visitors, including a Ferris wheel, a chain carousel, and a looping coaster, as well as many other rides for young and old. A large beer garden and the festival tent with festival beer from the Dorn brewery form the social center, complemented by market stalls and live music on most evenings.
Themed Days
The city relies on a proven concept with themed festival days:
- Opening Day with beer tapping
- Bulldog Day with tractor meeting
- Senior Day
- Family Day
- Father's Day
- DJ party and Schafkopf tournament
New additions to the program include a Blue Light Day, a job fair in the Ferris wheel, a safe space, and new rides.
Successful Relocation
After the relocation to the exhibition grounds, the Spring Festival's previously flagging reputation has significantly improved, according to the city administration. The new, easily accessible location with free parking and connections to the city bus has given the festival new momentum.
