Federweißerfest Bad Hönningen

The Autumnal Classic

Federweißer — the sweetish-sparkling, still fermenting must from the grape harvest — is considered the secret autumn hero in many German wine regions. In Bad Hönningen, the Federweißerfest on the Alter Schulplatz is dedicated to it for a whole weekend. The festival marks the traditional climax of the wine festival season in Bad Hönningen on the right bank of the Rhine, which cultivates a small but charming winegrowing history with its Middle Rhine vineyards.

Federweißer and Zwiebelkuchen

The main culinary pairing is set: Federweißer and Zwiebelkuchen are the classic seasonal duo that is part of the autumn tradition in many families. In Bad Hönningen, both are served directly on-site, fresh and in a village atmosphere. In addition, the vintners and club stands offer other specialties that suit the season.

The Alter Schulplatz as Festival Center

The Alter Schulplatz between Schmiedgasse and Kirchstraße is a traditional festival site in the town center of Bad Hönningen. Its central location allows guests to combine the festival with a stroll through the spa town or a visit to the Sole-Therme. Bad Hönningen is known as a spa town and combines tourism and wine tradition.

Live Music and Convivial Atmosphere

Live music accompanies the Federweißerfest and ensures a festive atmosphere. The musical offerings typically range from mood bands and cover bands to local artists who perform on the stage on the Schulplatz.
