Bayreuth's big Wine Festival 2026: five days full of enjoyment, music, and city center flair
When Maximilianstraße transforms into a delightful festival mile in August, the perhaps most relaxed time of summer begins in Bayreuth. The 13th Bayreuth Wine Festival invites you to the city park from August 6 to 10, 2026 – featuring around 40 Franconian wines, regional culinary delights, daily live music, and free admission.

Franconian wine meets genuine festival atmosphere
The wine festival is not a loud spectacle but a multi-day experience with a community feel. Between wine stalls, outdoor tables, and the stage, the perfect blend of ease and city festival energy is created, making Bayreuth particularly special during the festival month. The organizers Bayreuth Marketing and Tourism GmbH, the Franconian Winegrowers' Association e.V., and Zametzer & Krohn GbR rely on regional winemakers, personal conversations, and an atmosphere that invites you to linger.
