About Binger Sektfest

The Bingen Sparkling Wine Festival transforms the courtyard of Burg Klopp into a festive sparkling wine lounge for three days. From May 7th to 9th, 2026, Bingen and Rheinhessen sparkling wine producers will be serving their sparkling wines in the historic castle ambiance. It opens at 5 PM, and on Fridays and Saturdays, it goes until 1 AM. Live bands provide the musical backdrop: Back at Mamas on Thursday, Extraordinary on Friday, and Couch & Cocktail on Saturday. Admission is free. Burg Klopp – Bingen's medieval city castle high above the Rhine – offers an extraordinary setting for a sparkling wine festival: wrought-iron lighting, stone walls, and a view of the Rhine Valley. The Sparkling Wine Festival is one of the most charming spring events on the Middle Rhine and an opening event for the Bingen season before Sommernacht, Rhein in Flammen, Rochusfest, and Winzerfest.

The Bingen Sparkling Wine Festival is a three-day sparkling wine and fizz festival held in the courtyard of Bingen's city castle, Burg Klopp. The castle, high above Bingen's city center, dates back to Roman times and has been a city landmark for centuries. Date 2026: May 7th to 9th.

Sparkling Wine from Bingen and Rheinhessen

The focus is on Sekt (sparkling wine), Crémants, and other sparkling wines from Bingen and the Rheinhessen region. Several sparkling wine producers present their top products – from classic Riesling Sekt brut to Pinot Noir Crémants and rosé sparkling wines. Anyone traveling in Rheinhessen knows the region's sparkling wine culture: several significant sparkling wine estates (including in Bingen and Sprendlingen) shape the culinary offerings.

Burg Klopp as a Setting

The courtyard of Burg Klopp provides an extraordinary festival backdrop: historic masonry, wrought-iron lighting, and views of the Rhine and Nahe rivers. The castle now also houses Bingen's town hall, the local history museum, and an observation tower.

Three Festival Days, Three Bands

Open from Thursday to Saturday, starting at 5 PM each day. On Fridays and Saturdays, the festivities continue until 1 AM. Three different live bands provide the musical accompaniment: Back at Mamas on Thursday for a relaxed start, Extraordinary on Friday with a mix of pop and soul, and Couch & Cocktail on Saturday with lounge music to round things off.

Free Admission

Admission to the Sparkling Wine Festival is free. Drinks are served by the glass; no tickets or consumption cards are needed.
