Cozy summer festival of the local DRK association in front of the DRK home
The summer festival of the DRK local association Heimsheim is one of the regular summer events in the small town on the edge of the Heckengäu. On Saturday, June 13, 2026, the DRK home at Schulstraße 25 will open its doors and outdoor area from 10 a.m. to 11 p.m. for members, neighbors, and anyone who fancies a relaxed summer day.
The DRK local association Heimsheim has been part of the town's social life for decades. With its first aid services, blood donation campaigns, first aid courses, and standby services, it performs volunteer work that often remains invisible in everyday life — the summer festival, on the other hand, is an opportunity to make this commitment visible and to introduce the volunteer team to a wider public. The local association is part of the Pforzheim-Enzkreis district DRK association.
Heimsheim, with around 6,000 inhabitants, is located in the northwest of the Enzkreis district on the border with the Böblingen district. The town is primarily known for the Schleglerburg, a medieval tower in the town center, and Heimsheim Castle. The small-town community life — music association, sports clubs, DRK, fire department — structures the annual event calendar, in which the DRK summer festival is one of the highlights of the early summer months.
Community festivals like the DRK summer festival are not large-scale events with stage shows and headliners — they thrive on their atmosphere. Coffee and cake in the afternoon, grilled food and drinks in the evening, with conversations under the trees in front of the DRK home in between. Visitors to the festival can get to know volunteer helpers, learn about the work of the local association, and even fill out their membership application on the spot if they wish.
On Saturday, June 13, 2026, the DRK local association Heimsheim invites you to its annual summer festival. From 10:00 a.m. to 11:00 p.m., the DRK home at Schulstraße 25 will open its doors and outdoor area to association members, families from the neighborhood, and all Heimsheim residents who want to learn about the local Red Cross's commitment.
The focus is on conviviality: coffee and cake in the afternoon, grilled food and drinks in the evening, with relaxed conversations and encounters in between. The net proceeds from the festival go towards the local association's work — first aid courses, standby services, blood donation campaigns.
