Volksfest in the Altmühltal

The Greding Volksfest is the annual Kirchweih (church consecration festival) of the town of Greding, picturesquely located in the Altmühltal Nature Park. For four days, the festival grounds at the Altstadt-Parkplatz are transformed into a meeting point for young and old – with a festival tent, amusement park, and a packed entertainment programme against the backdrop of the medieval town.

Music, Beer, and Brotzeit

In the festival tent, brass band music and the hot rhythms of show bands alternate. Accompanied by tasty Brotzeiten (hearty snacks) and delicious beer – convivial togetherness is the focus. Cosy Frühschoppen (morning pint gatherings) and afternoons with the Greding Town Band create a traditional atmosphere, while the Bruckner fairground company's amusement park offers rides for all age groups.

Tradition on Monday

Monday, the last day of the festival, is traditionally dedicated to two special programme items: children parade through the old town with a cheerfully decorated bicycle parade, and there is a special afternoon programme for senior citizens. Thus, the Greding Volksfest combines custom, conviviality, and generations.
