Whitsun festival full of folk music at JOSKA Glasparadies
The Glasstraßenfest at JOSKA Glasparadies in Bodenmais is a regular fixture of the Whitsun period in the Regen district. Bodenmais is located on the famous Glasstraße (Glass Road), a holiday route in the Bavarian Forest that celebrates the region's traditional glassmaking craft. The festival combines this glass culture with Bavarian festival tradition.
From Whitsun Saturday to Whitsun Monday, musicians playing Bavarian-Bohemian live music with many well-known songs perform daily. In the JOSKA Biergarten, people sing, dance, and celebrate. Freshly grilled food and Falter beer are part of the experience, as is the relaxed atmosphere under the open sky.
A highlight is the performance by the traditional costume association D'Rißlocher on Whitsun Sunday at 1 p.m. in the JOSKA Biergarten. With traditional costumes, dance, and customs, the members bring a piece of lived Bavarian culture to the stage, underscoring the folk character of the festival.
