Annabergfest 2026: A festival week full of tradition, enjoyment and mountainous atmosphere
The Annabergfest on the Sulzbacher Annaberg is one of the defining festival weeks in the Amberg-Sulzbach region. From July 18 to July 26, 2026, this spiritually influenced mountain festival combines pilgrimage, encounters, and regional delicacies into a special experience for visitors from across Upper Palatinate.
Tradition with deep roots
The pilgrimage to St. Anna has been documented in the Sulzbacher Land since the 14th century. From this long history, a festival has grown that brings together customs, faith, and lived community in a particularly authentic market atmosphere. For many guests, it is precisely this mixture of history, festiveness, and regional variety that makes the Annabergfest so appealing.
Regional delicacies and artisanal enjoyment culture
Around the festival booths, visitors encounter Upper Palatinate specialties, freshly tapped beer specialties, and classic festival cuisine. The catering by regional hosts and breweries ensures a genuine shopping experience focused on direct marketers, producers, and artisanal products. Those seeking enjoyment and tradition will find a meeting point with a strong local connection here.
Family time, pilgrimage path, and views
The Annaberg offers not only festival atmosphere but also space for quiet moments, views, and walks. The northern slope is considered a popular place for families, while the paths around the Annaberg open up views of the city and its scenic surroundings. This creates a festival character that feels lively while remaining relaxed.
Travel, parking, and orientation

For the festival, shuttle buses run every half hour from the entire city area, including connections through the train station, Dultplatz, and gymnasium.
