Heilbronner Maifest 2025

The Heilbronner Maifest 2025 continued the decades-long tradition of the spring Volksfest on the Theresienwiese. Around 46 showman families set up their businesses — Ferris wheel, Break Dance, children's carousels, catering stands, and market stalls. The Maifest is a fixture in Heilbronn's event calendar and traditionally marks the beginning of the festival season, which finds its second peak in autumn with the Heilbronner Volksfest.

As usual, the Maifest attracted tens of thousands of visitors from Heilbronn and the surrounding area — families with children on Family Day, teenagers and young adults on weekend evenings, and Heilbronn residents to the "prices like 20 years ago" special opening. The mix of Volksfest atmosphere, regional showmen, and the central location on the Neckar makes the Maifest one of Northern Baden's most successful spring festivals.
