Hofgarten Wine Festival 2026: Baroque Evenings, Franconian Wine, and Festival Atmosphere in a UNESCO World Heritage Site
Between the residence and the orangery, from June 26 to July 5, 2026, the Hofgarten Wine Festival unfolds – a multi-day experience of enjoyment and culture in the heart of Würzburg. In the shade of the tree-lined avenues, with a view of the magnificent residence, exquisite Franconian wines from the State Wine Cellar meet relaxed live music and a strong sense of community.
Tradition since 1974: Wine Culture with History
Since the 1970s, the wine festival has shaped the Würzburg summer. The State Wine Cellar, one of the oldest wineries in Germany, invites you to the special setting of the Hofgarten – a festival character that connects local wine culture, encounters, and sociable evenings.
Open-Air Vibes: Music, Culinary Delights, Encounters
When the lights come on in the avenues, the multi-day experience begins: changing musical accompaniment, Franconian cuisine, and a diverse selection of wines from estate wines to premier cru ensure lively evenings. The open-air acoustics and the vast garden area create a space for unforgettable summer nights.
