About MVV Festival

The MVV Festival is the annual major event of the Musikverein Vaihingen/Enz e.V. in the Ludwigsburg district. For two days, the association transforms the area around the MVV Pavilion at Köszegerstraße 6 into an open festival ground with brass music, Swabian specialties, and a distinctly family-friendly program. The Open Day on the second festival day opens the pavilion's rooms to prospective members, interested visitors, and young musicians — a tangible experience of club life in the heart of Vaihingen.

Vaihingen an der Enz and its Music Association

With around 29,000 inhabitants, Vaihingen an der Enz is one of the larger medium-sized towns in the Ludwigsburg district (state of Baden-Württemberg), located between Stuttgart and Pforzheim on the Enz river. The Musikverein Vaihingen/Enz e.V. is one of the city's most active cultural associations and operates its own clubhouse at Köszegerplatz, the MVV Pavilion — a wooden pavilion building with an adjacent festival area, which is upgraded once a year for the MVV Festival.

Two-Day Format with Open Day

The MVV Festival combines two concepts: a classic summer music festival with brass music, catering, and a stage program on Saturday, and an Open Day on Sunday, where the association presents its rehearsal rooms, sheet music archive, and activities to the public. This is a deliberately accessible format designed primarily to facilitate entry into band music for families with musically interested children and potential club members.

Program: Main Band and Youth Band

Over the two festival days, the main band of the MVV Vaihingen plays first, supplemented by friendly music associations from the Ludwigsburg district and the Stuttgart region. Sunday focuses on the youth band — an important program item, as youth work is the heart of the association.

Culinary Delights and Atmosphere

At the association's stands, you'll find classic festival fare: Swabian Maultaschen, Bratwurst, Schnitzel with potato salad, chicken, fries, and cake on Sunday afternoon. This is accompanied by draft beer, Württemberger wine from the nearby Stromberg region, Apfelschorle (apple spritzer), and coffee. The catering is handled voluntarily by the association members and friendly clubs.

MVV Festival — edition 2026

The MVV Festival 2026 takes place on the weekend of June 13–14 at the MVV Pavilion, Köszegerstraße 6. Saturday features a music festival with the main band and guest bands, catering, and a stage program; Sunday includes a morning pint (Frühschoppen), a performance by the youth band, and the Open Day in the clubhouse.

Mid-June Festival Weekend 2026

The MVV Festival 2026 opens on Saturday, June 13, in the late afternoon with the inauguration at the MVV Pavilion. The main band of the Musikverein Vaihingen/Enz will kick things off, followed by friendly music associations from the Ludwigsburg district in the evening. Catering with Swabian specialties accompanies the stage program.

Sunday, June 14, is dedicated to the morning pint (Frühschoppen) with brass music, a midday meal, an afternoon performance by the Vaihingen youth band, and the Open Day in the pavilion — rehearsal rooms, sheet music archive, and club life accessible to visitors, with opportunities for trial performances for young musicians.
