Trier Carnival is part of the Rhenish-Mosellan Carnival tradition, which dates back to the 19th century. The Rose Monday parade is its highlight: floats and walking groups from Trier Carnival clubs, ATK member clubs, schools, friendly clubs from the Trier surrounding area, and guest clubs march in a procession several kilometres long through the city centre.
In terms of content, the parade combines classic Carnival elements — prince and princess, guards, funken, floats — with local political and social satire. In particular, the motto floats from individual clubs sharply comment on local politics and supra-regional topics. Tens of thousands of sweets are thrown into the audience — the traditional "Kamelle" rain.
The SWR live broadcast ensures the Trierer Rosenmontagszug receives nationwide attention. After the parade ends, Carnival moves to the city centre pubs and the SWT-Arena in northern Trier, where the After-Parade Party runs from 3 PM onwards.
Trierer Rosenmontagszug — edition 2026
The 2026 edition follows the classic format. As in previous years, floats and walking groups from Trier Carnival clubs and guest clubs from the Trier surrounding area are expected. The exact number of parade entries will be published by the Arbeitsgemeinschaft Trierer Karneval (ATK) in February 2026.
