Böbingen Weinkerwe

Opening with Mackenbacher Musikanten

The opening on Friday, July 17, 2026, at 6 p.m. will be performed by the Mackenbacher Musikanten. This Palatinate brass band is known beyond the region and will set the mood for the opening evening with its classic Palatinate brass repertoire. A traditional start that anchors the Weinkerwe format from the beginning.

Wine from Böbingen Winemakers

The Böbingen winemakers will serve their wines in the courtyard of the community center and at the stands along the main street. Riesling, Pinot Blanc and Gris, Pinot Noir, Dornfelder, Rosé, and sparkling wines complement a typical Palatinate Weinkerwe selection. Palatinate specialties – Saumagen, Bratwurst, Flammkuchen, Leberknödel – complete the culinary offerings.

Crafts and Children's Program

What sets the Böbinger Weinkerwe apart from other Palatinate Kerwen is the consistent integration of crafts and family activities. Artisans will showcase their work at market stalls, and village associations will organize a dedicated children's program with games, face painting, and small performances. This makes the Weinkerwe attractive for families and not just an adult wine festival.

Böbingen in the Maikammer Region

Böbingen has around 1,200 inhabitants and is located in the Maikammer administrative district, one of the most traditional wine-growing regions in the southern Palatinate. Its location between Maikammer, Edenkoben, and Landau – in the middle of the vineyards of the Südliche Weinstraße – makes Böbingen a typical Palatinate wine-growing community with a vibrant festival culture. The Weinkerwe is the village's most important summer event.
