Wilhelmstraßenfest | June 13–15, 2025
Taking place on Wiesbaden’s Wilhelmstraßefest, also known as ‘Rue,’ is the largest street fair in Germany with over 250,000 visitors each year. Like the street it takes place on, the festival also goes by another name, Theatrium dating back to 1977 when it was created to mark the reopening of the renovated Hessian State Theater. It has since become a highlight event in Wiesbaden each year for individuals and families to enjoy.
During three days, the festival has plenty of street cuisine to try, diverse street theatre programs, rides like Ferris wheels, an arts and crafts market with 70 exhibitors and many music and dance performances across five stages. If you travel by bike, you can park it at The Chamber of Commerce and Industry or in front of the Kurhaus for free.
