Giechburg Yoga Festival 2026: Two days full of peace, energy, and encounters
On September 26 and 27, 2026, Giechburg near Scheßlitz will transform into a special meeting point for yoga, movement, and community. The Giechburg Yoga Festival combines a diverse yoga program with Franconian hospitality and an impressive view over the Bamberg district. The event is part of the 6th International Week of the Bamberg district.
Yoga with a castle view and festival atmosphere
Amidst historic walls, wide landscape views, and fresh autumn air, a decelerated multi-day experience is created. Giechburg serves as the backdrop for yoga sessions, mindful movement, and relaxed breaks with a special sense of community. Depending on the weather, the classes will take place indoors or outdoors.
The festival program runs on both days from 09:00 to 19:30. Entry begins at 08:00. Visitors can put together their personal daily schedule from various courses and combine active sessions with restful phases, conversations, and culinary moments.
Diverse line-up of yoga and bodywork
The artist line-up consists of experienced trainers with different focuses. Among them are Irina Wambach, Petra Havelkova, Christin Hebach, Virginia Winsemann, and Verena Teuber. The spectrum ranges from Vinyasa Yoga and Yin Yoga to Pilates and fascia work, along with other movement and relaxation units.
This means that the festival is aimed at both experienced yoga fans and those who want to take a conscious break from everyday life. The festival organization will publish the final program a few days before the event, as the schedule depends on weather conditions.
Franconian culinary moments and heartfelt encounters
During the breaks, the Giechburg restaurant offers drinks, coffee, cake, and hearty Franconian meals. Food is not included in the ticket, but visitors are allowed to bring their own. Cash payment and card payment are available on-site.
The focus is not on time pressure, but on conscious experience: unroll your mat, take a deep breath, meet new people, and let your gaze wander over the landscape. This mix of movement, enjoyment, and community shapes the character of the Giechburg Yoga Festival.
Practical tips for attending the festival
For participation, guests need a valid festival wristband as well as a printed or digital ticket and an ID at check-in. Own yoga mats, blocks, blankets, pillows, sufficient clothing, and sun protection are recommended equipment. There are no showers available on-site.
