Westerwald Village Fair

The Kirmes Holler is one of the traditional summer fairs in the Montabaur administrative district and is anchored in the official fair calendar 2026 of the VG Montabaur (as of October 2025). It is part of a long series of Westerwald fair dates that take place every weekend of the summer in a different municipality of the administrative district, shaping rural festival life.

Four Days of Program

From July 17, 2026, to July 20, 2026, the fair offers a classic Westerwald program including the opening of the festival tent with a keg tapping ceremony, dance and disco evenings, Frühschoppen on Sunday with club participation, and a family afternoon with coffee, cake, and carousels. Food stalls, sweet shops, and drink stands complement the festival tent events.

Club and Village Life

The fair is organized by local clubs and the local council, who combine their efforts for the joint summer festival. The fire department, sports clubs, music clubs, carnival associations, and youth groups participate in the program and catering. This makes the fair more than just an amusement park: it is an expression of a vibrant village community and lived tradition in the Westerwald.
