Beuel-Fest

District Festival with Rhine Panorama

The Beuel-Fest is the annual district festival of Bonn's Beuel district – and with its location on the Rhine promenade between the China Ship and the Bahnhöfchen, it's one of the most beautiful city festivals in the federal capital. The 2026 edition takes place on Saturday, September 5, and Sunday, September 6, 2026. The organizer is the Gewerbe-Gemeinschaft Beuel (Beuel Business Association).

Around 120 Exhibitors

Approximately 120 businesspeople from Beuel present their products and services along the Rhine promenade – from hairdressers and fashion boutiques to insurance companies. The density of exhibitors makes the Beuel-Fest a showcase for the district's economy: here, Beuel residents can discover the local providers right on their doorstep, without having to travel to Bonn's city center.

Stage Program and Family Offerings

The festival weekend is accompanied by a multi-part stage program:

• Concerts by local bands from the Bonn region
• Children's program with entertainment and interactive activities
• Dance and show performances by local clubs
• Hosting by the Business Association

Raffle with Around 170 Prizes

A central tradition of the Beuel-Fest is the grand raffle with around 170 prizes donated by Beuel's exhibiting businesses. Tickets are sold on-site, with proceeds going back into organizing the district festival.

Beuel — Bonn's Rhine Promenade District

Beuel is one of Bonn's four city districts and is the only one located on the right bank of the Rhine – directly opposite Bonn's city center. With around 67,000 inhabitants spread over 35 km², Beuel is a dynamic district with its own identity, town hall, carnival tradition (Beueler Weiberfastnacht), and of course, the annual district festival. The Beuel Rhine promenade, with views of the Bonn Minster, the university, and the Siebengebirge hills, is one of the city's most beautiful promenades.

Integrated into Bonn's 2026 Event Calendar

The city of Bonn has announced its 2026 event calendar featuring “diverse and varied open-air events in the four city districts.” In the Beuel district alone, around 12 other major events complement the Beuel-Fest – from the Spring Festival (March) and the Beuel Easter Kirmes to several cultural festivals on the Rhine promenade in the summer and autumn.
