About Frankfurt

Festivals in Frankfurt

The people of Frankfurt love to celebrate: every year there are over a hundred street festivals, markets, traditional folk festivals and open-air events. They take place not only in the city centre, such as on the Roßmarkt or on the banks of the Main, but also in the various city districts or even in the city forest.

Please find below an overview of selected Frankfurt festivals.
