71 Years of Spring Folk Festival

In 2026, the Frühlingsfest Sulzbach-Rosenberg will celebrate its 71st edition – a remarkably long tradition that makes the festival one of the oldest folk festivals in the northern Oberpfalz. The venue is the Dultplatz in the former industrial and now medium-sized town of Sulzbach-Rosenberg in the Amberg-Sulzbach district (Bavaria). The City of Sulzbach-Rosenberg is the organizer, with active participation from local clubs and showmen.

Amusement Park, Beer Garden, and Laser Show

The festival grounds offer a classic amusement park with carousels, rides, snack stands, and sweets. Characteristic of Sulzbach-Rosenberg is the cozy beer garden, where the smooth beers from the local Fuchsbeck brewery are served – one of the characteristic private breweries of the Oberpfalz. Highlights of the program include the discounted opening Wednesday (rides for €1.50 between 5 p.m. and 7 p.m.), Father's Day on Thursday with the festival starting at 1 p.m., Children's Day on Friday with up to 50% off rides, and the spectacular laser show on Saturday at 10 p.m. On Sunday, free face painting for children will conclude the festivities.
