A Stadtfest with History
The Stadtfest in Osterholz-Scharmbeck has been celebrated annually since 1994. The 33rd edition in 2026 underscores the festival's importance in the district town's event calendar. The voluntary commitment of the Stadtfest association, the participation of local retailers, the involvement of the gastronomy sector, and the long-standing connection with the town's population have made this event a firm fixture in the summer life of OHZ.
Three Stages, Three Festival Days
The festival mile stretches across the Market Square and the Church Forecourt. Regional bands from Osterholz, the Wümme region, and the Bremen surrounding area perform on several stages. The musical spectrum ranges from pop and rock to cover bands, Schlager, and party music. Between the stages, walking acts and entertainment provide surprising moments. Gastronomic stands offer bratwurst, fries, Mediterranean specialties, cocktails, beer, and non-alcoholic drinks.
Family Program and Club Contributions
Families will find a varied program with face painting, a bouncy castle, game stations, and a small carousel. Local clubs, schools, and initiatives present themselves at stands along the festival mile. The Sunday shopping event integrates the city center's retail trade, making the festival day a sociable shopping stroll.
