Ochsenfurter Bratwurstfest is happening for the first time in history
For the first time in the history of its existence, the Bratwurstfest in Ochsenfurt will not take place this year. The festival should have taken place from May 30th to June 2nd. It would have been the 58th. “That has never been done before,” says Rosi Brauner, who, as chair of the organizing folk costumes association, supported the decision. With a heavy heart, the board of directors agreed in telephone calls to cancel the party, says Brauner. “It’s awesome, I can hardly believe it myself.” The government’s measures are nevertheless useful because the spread of the msse virus is being slowed down. “The state has already acted correctly.”
“It’s awesome, I can hardly believe it myself.”

Otherwise, the Ochsenfurt city marketing will initially hold events after August 31, according to the current status on the website. Because of this, the bridge anniversary and the Ochsenfurt Music Night will also be canceled. The traditional ox festival on September 5 is to take place as planned. If this should change, the city marketing wants to provide information in good time.
The Mission Ready Festival in Giebelstadt has been postponed until the next year. Up to 5000 punk rock fans have come to the day festival at the airfield in Giebelstadt in recent years. There is already a new date (July 3, 2021) and the organizers have announced an even better line-up for the coming year, i.e. the cast of the festival.
The Randersacker wine spring usually attracts visitors from all over the district every year. The two-day event should have taken place the penultimate weekend in March, but was canceled due to the corona pandemic. Tickets that have already been purchased can still be returned to the organizer, the Randersacker tourist information office. The next wine spring will only take place on March 20 and 21, 2021. In order to still be able to bring a little wine spring home this year, the Tourist Information Office is now offering at least a winemaker package with Randersackerer wines for pickup or delivery.
So it is about the Frankenfestspiele
The Rttingen Frankenfestspiele (May 7th to December 4th) will also be canceled this year after a long discussion. Mayor Martin Umscheid could imagine postponing the entire game schedule to next year and extending the validity of the tickets purchased. However, an exact procedure has not yet been determined. There is as yet no official cancellation for the Florian Geyer Festival in Giebelstadt (July 17 to August 1). Chairman Rdiger Scheer would like to speak to the performers beforehand, but he also says “how the decision turns out can be counted on five fingers.”
No trip to the 90s in 2020
The planned party event “90s Live” at Giebelstadt Airfield will not take place this year, according to organizer Helmut Mantel. The event was scheduled for July 27 and is now scheduled to be postponed to 2021. As soon as a new appointment is available, this will be communicated according to the coat. The annual Street Food Festival (September 18 to 20) also takes place at Giebelstadt Airfield. The management of Markt Giebelstadt informed this editorial team that there is no concrete information about this date in September, but it is assumed that this event will not take place this year either.
The Hubertus Festival in Fhrbrck (June 27) was canceled due to the corona pandemic, according to the parish community of Fhrbrck. It is hoped that the traditional 2021 festival can take place as usual. However, there is still no official cancellation for the herb festival (3rd and 4th October) in Unterpleichfeld. “Since we don’t need as much preparation time as at the Oktoberfest, we don’t want to make a decision until the summer,” said CEO Stephan Haupt.
Many wine festivals are also affected
Every year the Frickenhuser Wine Festival (August 7-10) is well attended, this year it could be different. Thomas Bauswein of the wine festival community says that the festival will not take place in the usual manner. “Whether we can do anything at all is still in the stars,” says Bauswein. With a definite rejection you are still waiting. The fixed committee is expected to discuss this in June.
The two large and popular wine festivals in June and July in Eibelstadt by FC and the volunteer fire brigade have also been canceled, according to statements from the town hall. Martin Geiler, Chairman of FC Eibelstadt, confirmed this to this editorial team and spoke of a not inconsiderable loss, roughly comparable to the membership fees of one year that the club incurs as a result. Nevertheless, health goes first.
