Bavarian Court Festival: Experience a variety of enjoyment on May 24th and 25th in Munich!
The traditional court festival at the Ministry of Agriculture will take place on May 24th and 25th, 2025 in the ministry's jewelry yard in Munich.

Visitors can look forward to an extensive selection that includes baked goods, cheese, fish, meat and game products, as well as Bavarian wine. Particular emphasis is placed on the WINES from the “Franconian Wine Paradise”, especially from the GenussVenken Markt Sommerhausen, Ramsthal and Lindauer Bodensee, as well as from Franconian organic winegrowers and the Bavarian State Institute for Viticulture and Horticulture. stmelf.bayern.de reports that the event will be accompanied by music on both days, on Saturday by the group “Zam g'strickt” and on Sunday by “Wanderblech”.
