About Weinhügelfest

Since 1930, Fürstenzell has celebrated its largest Volksfest at Pentecost under the large linden trees on the Weinhügel. For five days, the Weinhügelfest offers a varied program: from the Bavarian Heimatabend (homeland evening) to the Abend der Betriebe (evening of businesses) and Ladies Night, to the Blechmusi-Sonntag (brass music Sunday) with a parade. Heated festival tent, lively music, and free admission – a Lower Bavarian traditional festival. In 2026, it also coincides with the major anniversary year FZ3LL.
