About Ingelheim Harbour Festival

The Ingelheim Harbour Festival on the Jungau is a four-day folk festival (Volksfest) on Ingelheim's Rhine promenade. From July 24th to 26th, 2026 (opening events from Thursday 23rd or Friday 24th depending on setup), the Jungau meadow transforms into a large summer festival area with live music, an artists' market, a children's program, and the popular oldtimer meet. The event is organized by IkUM Ingelheim, the city's subsidiary for culture, tourism, and marketing. The festival combines Rhenish-Hessian festival culture with its location directly on the Rhine – offering wide views across the river, a picnic atmosphere on the meadow, and a relaxed program for all ages. It is one of Ingelheim's largest summer festivals and a fixed date for families, music fans, and oldtimer enthusiasts from the entire region between Mainz and Bingen.

Jungau Meadow on the Rhine

The Jungau meadow is a spacious grassy area on Ingelheim's Rhine promenade. The open, park-like grounds offer wide views across the river and are a popular spot for picnics and recreation in the summer. During the Harbour Festival, stages, stalls, a children's area, and the oldtimer display area are set up here.

Live Music on Several Stages

Live bands, DJs, and acoustic acts perform on multiple stages, alternating throughout the day. The spectrum ranges from rock and pop to Schlager and cover sets from the local scene. The stages are positioned to provide sound across the entire festival grounds without acts interfering with each other.

Artists' Market

An artists' market featuring arts and crafts, jewelry, ceramics, leather goods, and regional products gives the festival a market character. Vendors from Ingelheim and the surrounding region present their work.

Children's Program

The children's program includes game stations, craft activities, carousels, and interactive events. The Harbour Festival is designed as a family-friendly summer celebration.

Oldtimer Meet

One of the hallmarks of the Harbour Festival is the Oldtimer Meet. Enthusiasts showcase their vehicles – from pre-war roadsters and VW classics to American land yachts. The meet serves as a gathering place for the regional oldtimer scene.
