Brandis — a small district with a big village festival
Brandis is a district of the town of Falkenberg/Elster in the southern Elbe-Elster district — nestled in the hilly landscape between the Schwarze Elster and the Niederlausitz lowlands. With a few hundred inhabitants, Brandis is a classic Brandenburg village — and its annual festival tradition is an important element of village life. On Saturday, August 1, 2026 (until Sunday, August 2), the district invites you to the Dorffest (village festival).
Brandenburg Village Festival — what to expect
As with most Brandenburg village festivals, the program is typically a mix of stage with live music or DJ, club stands (fire department, sports club, heritage club), family program with bouncy castle and face painting, catering by clubs, and a convivial end to the evening. The event is firmly listed on the official event calendar of the town of Falkenberg/Elster — an indication of its integration into town life.
Falkenberg/Elster and its districts
The town of Falkenberg/Elster, with its nine districts — Falkenberg/Elster (town center), Beyern, Brandis, Großrössen, Kölsa, Rehfeld, Sachau-Drasdo, Schmerkendorf, and Uebigau — is a typical Brandenburg "large municipality" where each district preserves its own identity. The annual village festival in Brandis is one of several festivals that take place in the districts throughout the year — alongside the beach festival at Kiebitzsee in the main town or the station festival. A great opportunity to get to know rural Brandenburg beyond the big city festivals.
Elbe-Elster District
The Elbe-Elster district is located in southwestern Brandenburg, on the border with Saxony-Anhalt and Saxony. With Herzberg (Elster), Bad Liebenwerda, Finsterwalde, Elsterwerda, and Falkenberg/Elster as the main towns, the region is one of the quietest and most rural in Brandenburg — ideal for those who want to experience rural Brandenburg in its authentic form. The Brandis village festival is a typical example of the vibrant club culture that supports social life in these villages.
