Imperial City Festival

Events 2012

The Imperial City Festival represents a highlight of the annual calendar of events - every first weekend in september. The torchlight procession of all participants and the fireworks with music along the facade of the impressive town hall mark the beginning of this top-event on Friday.

On Saturday, do not miss the great fireworks in the Tauber valley. Against the thunder of canons and the glow of innumerable fireworks, the town sinks into the night before waking up the next day to continue the merry celebrations.
