Four-day Kerb in Gau-Bischofsheim with hike, Kerb party, and family program
The Bischemer Kerb is the traditional Kerb (village fair) of the Rhenish-Hessian municipality Gau-Bischofsheim in the Wörrstadt administrative district. It classically extends from Friday to Monday and integrates the entire village community life into a packed festival program.
The event kicks off on Friday, June 26, 2026, starting at 4:45 PM with the Kerb wine hike to the Glockenberghütte. For 15 Euros, participants can enjoy a guided hike with wine tasting stations in the vineyards. An extraordinary format that combines wine, hiking, and the Kerb kickoff.
The highlight of the Kerb is the Kerb party with three bands: YES WE PLAY, EIGHTIES EUPHORIA, and AUF DREI. Three different musical concepts – from cover classics and 80s pop to rocking sets – ensure an evening that appeals to different age groups.
Sunday is dedicated to community: an ecumenical church service at 11 AM brings the Christian community together, and the „Bischem isst zusammen” event gathers the village community at shared tables.
Another highlight is the family show night „GLAABSTES?” – a local insider term (in Rhenish-Hessian dialect for „Can you believe it?”), representing an entertaining evening with show elements, sketches, and a family program.
Monday, June 29, starting at 5 PM, features a liver dumpling meal at Weingut Wagner – a classically hearty Rhenish-Hessian specialty that is part of the Kerb. Afterwards, the „Bischemer Nachtschicht” concludes the festival.
Throughout the weekend, the Kirmes in the park is open – with rides, shooting galleries, candy, and snack stalls. Thus, the Bischemer Kerb offers the full spectrum of a Rhenish-Hessian Kerb tradition.
