Finally a beer tent again, finally a pageant again: with a two-year delay, the Warngau boys let it rip for five days.
More than 1,500 guests are expected on Sunday.
The war in Ukraine almost choked off Monday's Agriculture Day.
Warngau
- church procession, pageant, celebrations under a tent roof - after a long dry spell against Corona, that sounds like a memory of distant times.
The anticipation that the old days are reviving was all the greater in Warngau.
The beer tapping on Thursday evening (May 19) heralds the five-day boys' anniversary.
Until Monday, May 23rd, the 50th anniversary of the Oster- and Oberwarngau boys' association will be celebrated in and around the festival tent at Kapellenfeld.
The weather forecast is mixed, but a dry summer's day has been announced for the festival Sunday (May 22nd), on which more than 1500 participants are expected.
Sunday starts with the line-up for the church procession.
As Benedikt Holzner from the festival committee explains, the participants come together at the festival tent from 9 a.m.
The march to All Saints' Day, where the field mass begins at 10 a.m., is at 9.30 a.m.
After the service, around 11 a.m., the procession is formed through Oberwarngau.
Companies from the region save the day of agriculture
The beer and wine festival on Friday (May 20) is largely shaded by the marquee.
"The tent holds about 1,650 people," says Holzner.
There are still tickets available for the music cabaret "Three men only with guitar" on Saturday evening (May 21) from 6 p.m. in the tent (25 euros in advance, 28 euros at the box office).
An agricultural field day with demonstrations was planned for Monday (23 May).
"Unfortunately, due to supply bottlenecks as a result of the Ukraine war, that won't happen," Holzner regrets.
Instead, agricultural machines can be seen from the afternoon.
"Unfortunately, the Baywa, which was supposed to be present in this exhibition, moved us here at short notice," says Holzner.
Companies from the region step in as exhibitors, including the agricultural machinery companies Pritzl, Eder and Gruma as well as the Unimog Henne, the contractor Leonhard Bichlmayr, cattle transport Ludwig Kuchler, the carpenter Matthias Lechner and farmer Johann Kauderer.
