Gourmet Day of the Gourmet Region Bamberg: Regional Diversity in Stegaurach
On Sunday, September 27, 2026, the town center of Stegaurach will transform into a vibrant marketplace of Franconian specialties. At the 9th Gourmet Day of the Gourmet Region Bamberg, local producers, direct marketers, artisans, clubs, and visitors come together for a festive day full of culinary discoveries, music, and living traditions.
Market Atmosphere with Franconian Joy of Life
From 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM, the gourmet mile will run through the town center of Stegaurach. Around 70 artisan, specialty, action, and information booths invite visitors to stroll, taste, and engage in personal exchanges. Regional food products, seasonal offers, handmade crafts, and Franconian hospitality shape the shopping experience.
Harvest Thanksgiving, Music, and Living Traditions
The festive day begins at 9:00 AM with an ecumenical harvest thanksgiving service at the Church of the Immaculate Conception of Mary. The rural women's choir of the Bavarian Farmers' Association will provide musical accompaniment for the service. Afterwards, a festive parade with the Mühlendorf music association, honored guests, and participating clubs will proceed to the festival tent by the lake, where the official opening will take place.
Crafts, Specialties, and Family Program
The Gourmet Day connects regional product quality with illustrative craftsmanship and information. In addition to food and drinks, local vendors will present their products and offerings. Musical highlights will be provided, among others, by the hunting horn players and performances by the Upper Franconian rural women's choirs. Families can explore the market through a gourmet rally, where children can collect stamps and win attractive prizes.
District Harvest Thanksgiving Festival and Upper Franconian Choir Meeting
Parallel to the specialty market, the Bavarian Farmers' Association will celebrate the district harvest thanksgiving festival. In addition, the Upper Franconian rural women's choirs will gather for a choir meeting. Thus, the event combines enjoyment, agriculture, music, and regional community into a special autumn day in the Bamberg district.
Access by Shuttle Bus
For arrival, parking options are available at the REWE market as well as at a designated area on State Road 2276 at the town exit of Stegaurach. A shuttle bus runs regularly between 8:30 AM and around 6:00 PM from the parking lots to the event location and the beginning of the booths on Bamberger Straße.
The Gourmet Day of the Gourmet Region Bamberg offers market-goers regional diversity, genuine craftsmanship, culinary discoveries, and Franconian festive atmosphere. Those looking to meet direct marketers, sample specialties from the Bamberg region, and experience harvest thanksgiving together will find a varied occasion for an autumn excursion in Stegaurach.
