A Classic Lower Bavarian Volksfest
The Volksfest Ergoldsbach is a fixed date in the Lower Bavarian Volksfest calendar between Landshut, Straubing, and Mallersdorf. The market town of Ergoldsbach, a municipality with around 6,500 inhabitants, organizes the festival annually at the beginning of June. The focus is on the beer tent: festival host Max Reichl – an established festival host in the Lower Bavarian Volksfest scene – runs the Weißbier tent together with the Privatbrauerei Stöttner from Pfaffenberg.
The Privatbrauerei Stöttner
The Stöttner family brewery has existed for over 150 years and supplies the specially brewed Volksfest beer for the festival in Ergoldsbach. Stöttner Weißbier has cult status in the region – the tent attracts regular guests who specifically come to Ergoldsbach for the special beer selection.
New for 2026: The Weißbier Carousel
A novelty for the 2026 edition: the Weißbier carousel, set up in the beer tent, where festival-goers can enjoy their Weißbier like in a classic standing carousel. The idea combines the Lower Bavarian Volksfest tavern atmosphere with a visual eye-catcher.
Program and Atmosphere
The festival tent offers live music with Lower Bavarian dance bands, along with classic Wiesn food: roast chicken, bratwurst, grilled fish on a stick, pretzels, and cold cuts. The festival grounds attract families with amusement rides, a swing boat, a children's carousel, a shooting gallery, and candy stalls. The atmosphere is familiar and traditional, far from the mass tourism of the Munich Oktoberfest.
Location and Region
Ergoldsbach is located in the district of Landshut, Bavaria, about 20 km northeast of Landshut. The market town borders the districts of Straubing-Bogen and Dingolfing-Landau and is conveniently located between the Lower Bavarian Volksfest metropolises.
