Overview
The 2025 Wendelskirmes once again attracted hundreds of thousands of visitors to the district town of St. Wendel — between the pilgrimage week, the Wendelsmarkt, and the amusement park at the Bosenbach festival grounds.
With a new festival tent and an expanded Oktoberfest program, the 2025 edition set standards for the 2026 anniversary edition. The grand finale fireworks and the Wendelsmarkt with hundreds of stalls also confirmed its status as the region's most popular folk festival.
Programme
The 2025 program followed the established two-week schedule: pilgrimage week with themed pilgrimage days, amusement park starting the second festival weekend, Wendelsmarkt on the feast day (October 20), and a finale with fireworks.
