Munich City Founding Festival
2025
Edition 2025 — Finished
Edition 2025 — Stadtgründungsfest Munich
The Munich City Founding Festival 2025 once again commemorated the city's founding in 1158. Organized by the state capital Munich, the program with free admission was spread across several locations in the Old Town.
As every year, the core elements of the festival weekend included the opening by the Lord Mayor, brass music, and the Moriskentänzer dance on the main stage at Marienplatz, the craft village at Odeonsplatz, the Irish-Bavarian stage at Rindermarkt, and the children's program in the Alter Hof.
