Sommerfest Gotteszell

About Sommerfest Gotteszell

In the small Lower Bavarian monastery town of Gotteszell, located between the Bavarian Forest and ARBERLAND, SV Gotteszell invites you every year in June to its three-day sports and summer festival on the sports grounds. A mix of a classic Volksfest (public festival), beer tent atmosphere, football tournament, and live bands from the region — typical for the Lower Bavarian club festivals where the whole village comes together. The event is officially listed in the event calendar of the ARBERLAND tourism region.

Club Festival with Tradition

SV Gotteszell e.V. is one of the defining club structures in the monastery town of Gotteszell (Regen district, Bavaria), which has 580 inhabitants. Its sports and summer festival has been a must-attend event in early summer for residents of the surrounding villages in the southern Bavarian Forest for decades. The 36th edition will take place in 2026.

Bavarian Forest Flair

Gotteszell owes its name to the former Cistercian monastery founded in the 13th century — the monastery church is still the town's landmark today. The summer festival combines the typical elements of a Lower Bavarian Volksfest: a festival tent, Maßkrug (liter beer mug), Schweinsbraten (roast pork), and Brezn (pretzel), along with live music from regional bands. The ARBERLAND tourism region officially lists the festival among the Volksfeste in the Regen district.
