1516 – Festival for Pure Beer Ingolstadt
2025
Edition 2025 — Finished
Edition 2025 — Festival for Pure Beer
The 2025 edition continued the concept of the previous year: three days of festivities at Theaterplatz, breweries from all over Bavaria, a medieval market with costumes and stalls, live music with historical connections. The Cultural Office of the City of Ingolstadt has established the festival as a permanent fixture in the city's calendar – a commitment to its historical identity as the birthplace of the Reinheitsgebot.
Families, tourists, and beer connoisseurs from Ingolstadt and far beyond use the festival to sample beers, discover lesser-known Bavarian breweries, and immerse themselves in the Renaissance atmosphere.
