Edition 2025 — Güglinger Maienfest
87th Edition 2025
The 2025 edition proceeded as planned over Whitsun. The motto of the 2025 parade was again creatively implemented by the associations — floats, traditional costume groups, and school classes characterized the Whit Monday procession. The bands ensured full tents on the dance evenings, and the senior citizens' afternoon provided the 65+ generation with coffee, cake, and music.
With the Maienfest, Güglingen has demonstrated for almost 90 years how a Whitsun festival can shape a small town: preparations take months, associations organize themselves, and citizens work together. The result is a festival that is not touristy but rather village-like and urban — a mix that is often lost in larger cities.
