- The funfair opens Wednesday, April 29, and the stage-led Volksfest begins Friday, May 1 with acts including DJ Tomekk and pop singer Sebastian Hämer.
- The big parade takes place Saturday, May 2 in the town center and showcases local clubs along with the presentation of the Blossom Queen.
- Transport agencies will add extra RE1 regional trains on weekends and on May 1, while Regiobus expands service and a shuttle bus moves visitors between orchards.
