Overview

The 2025 Gillamoos took place in early September in Abensberg. For five days, around 300,000 visitors celebrated Bavaria's oldest Volksfest with a procession, funfair, and the traditional "Politischer Gillamoos".

In 2025, the Gillamoos in Abensberg once again attracted hundreds of thousands of visitors. Over five days, beer tents, the funfair, the grand procession of traditional costume dancers, and traditional competitions such as wood sawing and the Dirndl Queen election shaped the festival. The "Politischer Gillamoos" on Monday was once again the media highlight: top politicians from all major parties spoke to packed festival tents. The Gillamoos confirmed its reputation as Bavaria's oldest Volksfest and a fixed date in the Bavarian political and customs calendar.
