Bamberg Sandkerwa Celebrates 75th Anniversary in 2025
The historic city of Bamberg, Germany, is gearing up for a grand celebration as the Bamberg Sandkerwa, one of the most traditional and popular folk festivals in Franconia, marks its 75th anniversary in 2025. This five-day event, scheduled from August 21 to August 25, promises to be a vibrant spectacle, transforming the historic Sand district in the old town into a festive mile.
For visitors planning to attend the entire event, a full event ticket priced at 6 euros offers an economical choice. Those preferring to attend on specific days can opt for daily tickets, priced at 2.50 euros each. It is worth noting that a full event ticket becomes more cost-effective from the third day of visiting.
The mandatory festival badge system, implemented in 2022 due to increased organizational and financial requirements, will be in effect for the Bamberg Sandkerwa. These badges are required for entry and will be sold and controlled at the official entrances to the event area. There are no additional controls on the Sandkerwa grounds itself.
The Bamberg Sandkerwa is not just a folk festival; it is a living piece of Bamberg's identity and a highlight in the event calendar of the UNESCO World Heritage city. The event features Franconian specialties, music, processions, and the famous Fisherman's Contest on the Regnitz.
Last year, around 200,000 visitors attended the Bamberg Sandkerwa, making it one of the major events in Bamberg. The 75th Bamberg Sand Kirchweih is expected to attract even more visitors, promising a lively and festive atmosphere.
