Federweißerfest in Hochstadt: wine, enjoyment and royal greetings!
The anticipation for the Feather White Festival is increasing! Next weekend, October 11th and 12th, 2025, the 1st Hochstadt Winegrowers Association invites you to an enjoyable festival in the heart of Hochstadt. As vorsprung-online.de reports, the celebrations will take place in the picturesque Winzerhof at Bischofsheimer Str. 9 and promise a fine program for all wine lovers.
The doors of the Winzerhof will open on Saturday, October 11th, from 4:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. and on Sunday, October 12th, from 11:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. On this festive occasion, visitors can enjoy the Federweißer and delicious onion cake, which are considered classics of the festival. Entertaining regional specialties are also offered - everyone will get their money's worth!
A festive supporting program
It will be particularly festive on Saturday at 5:00 p.m. when the wine queen Mareike I welcomes royal guests from the surrounding area. A highlight of Sunday is the winemakers' women's cake buffet, which offers sweet delicacies from 2 p.m. There's sure to be a little something for everyone with a sweet tooth here!
A little reminder for all cyclists: Please park your bikes outside the Winzerhof so that the festivities can take place undisturbed.
Tradition and enthusiasm for Federweißen
The Federweißen Festival has its roots in the region's “Bitzlerfesten” and has been an integral part of the wine calendar since 1953, especially in Landau, where over 100,000 visitors annually attend the most popular wine festival in the Southern Palatinate, as Wikipedia points out. These celebrations are not only a tribute to the new vintage, but also a great opportunity to celebrate winemaking culture and come together.
The wine festival season runs from March to November and reaches its peak in autumn when the new wines are tasted. The region offers countless wine festivals in magical courtyards and in the open air, so that every wine lover gets their money's worth. As the crowning finale, the mulled wine candle awaits us - an unofficial finale to the wine festival season, as weinfeste-der-pfalz.de informs.
So, let’s go to the Federweißenfest in Hochstadt! Friendship, enjoyment and tradition are very important here. We wish everyone involved a successful celebration!
