The Dachau folk festival is known far beyond the city limits. Located in the middle of the town, at the foot of the Altstadtberg, the traditional festival attracts hundreds of thousands of guests to the Festwiese every year. A successful interplay of marquees, fairground rides, fairground stalls and tempting delicacies creates a unique atmosphere.<\/p>

It is not only on Family Day that the Dachau Folk Festival becomes an experience for the whole family, thanks to the wide range of offers from the showmen and showwomen and the numerous rides for young and old. Sports enthusiasts can enjoy the thrill of the Dachau Mountain Criterium during the festival period. The international bicycle race around the historic old town takes place every year on August 15, the feast day of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary.<\/p>

Another highlight of the festival every year is the colorful fireworks display above Dachau Castle, which has attracted thousands of visitors from Munich, Freising and Augsburg for years.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Thanks to the central location of the Volksfestplatz in the middle of the town of Dachau, at the foot of the picturesque old town skyline, visiting the Dachau Volksfest by public transport is particularly convenient and recommended.<\/p>
