Youth Football with an International Touch

The International Pentecost Tournament of SV Bonlanden is one of the oldest and most traditional youth football tournaments in the greater Stuttgart area. The football department of the Bonlanden sports club has been hosting the tournament on Pentecost weekend since the late 1960s. In 2026, the 59th edition will run from Friday, May 22, to Sunday, May 24, on the sports grounds in Humboldtstraße in Filderstadt-Bonlanden.

16 Teams from Several Countries

The format is clearly defined: 16 international teams, organized by age group, compete against each other in group stages and knockout rounds. Each team is guaranteed at least 7 games over the weekend — a well-thought-out tournament setup that offers maximum playing value for the young players. Participating clubs typically come from Germany, Switzerland, Austria, Italy, and occasionally France.

Humboldtstraße Sports Grounds as Tournament Center

The SV Bonlanden sports grounds in Humboldtstraße have several grass and artificial turf pitches where games run in parallel. For parents and visitors, there are catering stands, a festival kitchen, and seating areas. SV Bonlanden is well-positioned as a club — youth development is one of its pillars, and the Pentecost Tournament is the flagship of this tradition.

Closing Ceremony at Fildorado

After the final matches on Sunday, the closing ceremony takes place at Fildorado — Filderstadt's adjacent adventure pool and sports/event center. This is where the award ceremonies, prize-giving, and the joint closing celebration for all participating teams will be held. For the young players, this is a memorable moment — competition, meeting international peers, and an experience at Fildorado.

Filderstadt-Bonlanden and the Esslingen District

Bonlanden is one of Filderstadt's five districts — alongside Bernhausen (main town), Plattenhardt, Sielmingen, and Harthausen. Filderstadt, with just under 47,000 inhabitants, is located in the Esslingen district, south of Stuttgart on the Filder plateau. In the state of Baden-Württemberg, the Filder region, with its proximity to the airport and trade fair, is a dynamic sub-center of the greater Stuttgart area — and the Pentecost Tournament is one of the established youth sports events in the region.
