Tittling Volksfest

About Tittling Volksfest

The Tittlinger Volksfest is the annual major event of the Lower Bavarian market town of Tittling in the Passau district. For four days at the end of August, the market square fills with a festival tent, amusement rides, snack stands, and sweet stalls — a classic Volksfest in the character of the Bavarian Forest. It opens on Friday afternoon with a colorful parade, and on Sunday, the traditional Kirta (a type of Kirchweih or fair) takes place on the market square, starting at 8 am. Tittling, nestled in the Dreiburgenland (Englburg, Saldenburg, Fürstenstein) and located at the gateway to the Bavarian Forest, transforms for four days into a scene of Franconian-Bavarian festival joy. The event is one of Lower Bavaria's classic August Volksfests.

Tittling — The Gateway to the Bavarian Forest

Tittling is a market town with around 4,300 inhabitants in the Passau district, Lower Bavaria administrative region, Bavaria state. The town is located in the Dreiburgenland, a culturally unique region surrounding the three medieval castles of Englburg, Saldenburg, and Fürstenstein. Tittling is also a tourist gateway to the southern Bavarian Forest — the distinctive peaks of Brotjacklriegel and Dreisesselberg are visible. The Tittlinger Volksfest benefits from this location: it brings together families from the Passau region, hikers from the Bavarian Forest, and festival-goers from Lower Bavaria.

The program follows the classic Lower Bavarian Volksfest schedule: opening on Friday with the tapping of the first keg and parade, festival operations on Saturday and Sunday, a family and club day on Sunday with Kirta, and winding down on Monday evening with the last hours in the festival tent. The festival tent offers family-sized seating, and the amusement rides cater to all age groups — from the children's carousel to the roller coaster.
