Seefest on Lake Chiemsee
Rimsting is located on the western shore of Lake Chiemsee in the district of Rosenheim (AGS 09187) and is part of the touristically significant Chiemgau region. The Westernach beach area offers direct access to the lake and is the venue for the annual Seefest organized by the Rimsting Trachtenverein. In summer, locals and holiday guests gather here on Lake Chiemsee for an afternoon and evening between the lake, traditional customs, and brass band music.
Program Outline
The program starts at 2 PM. The Blaskapelle Bad Endorf, Goaßlschnalzer, and Schuhplattler from the Trachtenverein take turns on stage. For children, there is a carousel and a bouncy castle; small prizes are traditionally raffled at the Glückshafen. Food and drinks include barbecue specialties, grilled fish on a stick (Steckerlfisch), beer, as well as coffee and cake.
Fireworks on Lake Chiemsee
The highlight of the festival is a "grand firework display" after dark. Against the backdrop of Lake Chiemsee, with the distant Chiemsee Islands of Herrenchiemsee and Frauenchiemsee clearly visible, a special spectacle unfolds – both from the beach area and from the opposite shore.
Rimsting Trachtenverein as Organizer
The Rimsting Trachtenverein organizes the festival, supplemented by catering contributions from local clubs. The event is weather-dependent; a rain date is scheduled. Children under 14 have free admission; free parking is available at the beach area. Discounts via guest cards are not possible.
