Allgäu Festival Week 2026: Kempten's fifth season returns
For nine days, the Allgäu Festival Week transforms Kempten into a vibrant multi-day experience with a trade fair, cultural program, and local festival. Between the city park and Königplatz, festival atmosphere meets regional cuisine, craftsmanship, art, and live music - a community spirit that has connected generations since 1949.
Tradition meets the present: fair, music, enjoyment
On the main stage, local bands and brass bands alternate, while side-stages and activity areas liven up the grounds. Exhibitors from industry, trade, and agriculture present innovations; beer gardens and festival tents provide the stage for sociability, open-air acoustics, and Allgäu specialties.
Festival organization that works
Organized by the Kempten Trade Fair and Event Operations, the festival week offers clear structures: fixed entry times, evening operations with size regulations, youth protection, cloakroom, ATM, and a service point at Gate East. The result: smooth processes, short distances, secure operations - exemplary festival organization.
Around the city park: your site guide
The festival area extends around the city park. Parking lots P1–P5 are marked; shuttlebuses connect parking areas and the city center regularly. Night buses ensure safe transport to districts and surrounding areas after the program ends. Those arriving by train or public transport can easily reach the area on foot.
Sensory impressions: sound, light, community
When brass music and festival beats waft through the trees of the city park, the aroma of roasted chicken and hops fills the air. String lights and the legendary light festival paint warm colors over the paths, while the community in the beer garden forms new friendships - living festival culture in the heart of the city.
