Volksfest Tradition in the Asparagus Town

The Volksfest Schrobenhausen is the most important folk festival in the town of Schrobenhausen, the renowned 'Asparagus Town' in the Upper Bavarian district of Neuburg-Schrobenhausen in Bavaria. On the festival grounds of Stiefschen Wiese, the region celebrates vibrant folk festival customs for five days.

Crowning of the Asparagus Queen

The highlight of the festival is the ceremonial crowning of the Schrobenhausen Asparagus Queen in the festival tent at the Volksfestplatz. It honors the famous cultivation area of Schrobenhausen asparagus and makes the region's agricultural identity tangible – a social highlight that receives attention far beyond the town's borders.

Festival Tent, Rides, and Customs

The festival's course is shaped by tried-and-tested highlights:

  • Family Afternoon on Saturday with reduced ride prices
  • Morning Pint (Frühschoppen) on Sunday with brass music
  • Senior Afternoon on Monday

In the festival tent, music bands provide the atmosphere, while on the festival grounds, rides, showmen, and culinary stalls offer family entertainment.

New Additions and Regional Identity

The most recent edition expands the program with a Ferris wheel, a more extensive musical offering, and alcohol-free light beer on tap. Volksfest Schrobenhausen thus serves as a convivial meeting point for the entire region and a vibrant showcase of Upper Bavarian folk festival culture.
