Erntedankfest Kirchwerder

The 2025 edition followed the established tradition: Harvest Thanksgiving Service in St. Severini Church, followed by a grand parade over 4.5 km from the Kirchwerder church tower to the Sülzbrack festival grounds, featuring over 50 decorated floats, around 100 riders, and traditional costume groups from the Vier- und Marschlande. The event was organized by the Förderverein Erntedankfest e.V. and the Gemeinschaft Vier- und Marschlande e.V.

With over 70,000 visitors, the festival confirmed its reputation as Northern Germany's largest harvest celebration and the most important traditional event in Hamburg's Bergedorf district.
