About Kirmes Montabaur-Ettersdorf

The Kirmes Montabaur-Ettersdorf is the traditional summer Kirmes (fair) of the Westerwald municipality of Ettersdorf (district of Montabaur). For four days, the village center around the festival grounds and community hall transforms into a lively Volksfest (public festival) area with a festival tent, live music, Frühschoppen (morning pint), family afternoon, carousels, and a food mile. Clubs and volunteers provide catering and organize the program together. The date is part of the official Kirmes calendar 2026 of the Montabaur municipal association and fits into the dense network of Westerwald Kirmes dates that bring the region's villages together throughout the summer.
