Tradition and Sociability on Corpus Christi Day

The Grillfest of the FFW Pemfling is closely linked to the Catholic high festival of Corpus Christi. After the traditional Corpus Christi procession through the village, during which the procession with the Blessed Sacrament takes place with decorated altars and flower carpets, the Pemfling Volunteer Fire Brigade invites you to a convivial barbecue party. The festival thus directly follows the religious event and brings the village community together for a relaxed gathering.

A Meeting Point for the Village Community

With grilled food, cool drinks, and music, procession participants, clubs, and guests come together. The fire brigade traditionally takes care of the catering – a custom that honors the voluntary commitment of the FFW and at the same time emphasizes the connection between the church, clubs, and the community. The barbecue party is tied to the church calendar and takes place annually on Corpus Christi Day.

Regional Context
