Rust continued later on: “When we looked at how festival operations would have to change to prioritize safety, plus the related operational restrictions, we just didn’t feel we would be able to provide the Wurstfest experience we are known for.”īecause there are many local nonprofits that rely on the festival for fundraising efforts, the festival will host some sort of effort to help these organizations, to be announced later. “We made this decision knowing what a difficult year 2020 has been,” said festival president Randy Rust in the announcement, posted on Thursday, July 23, “and that our guests were looking forward to Wurstfest more than ever.”
Wurstfest is a festival that can be enjoyed by people of all ages, you can wear what you like but the website states that dirndls, lederhosen and silly hates are encouraged and smiles are required.New Braunfels’s annual German and Texan festival Wurstfest is canceled for the first time ever this year, because of the novel coronavirus pandemic. The Wurstfest festival has a lost people post so I advise locating that and showing your children in the event that you get parted from them. This is a big festival with thousands of people attending, make sure to keep your children close by with you at all times. Past visitors suggest that visiting Wurstfest is much better during the weekdays when the crowds are not as big, and not to park on the fairground parking lot as you could face some traffic trying to get out. Your traditional German foods such as wursts, potato pancakes, fried pickles and the like will be their for you to feast on, along with a selection of good tasting German beers. Only service animals are allowed on site, all other pets prohibited for the safety of the crowd as the noise and sheer amount of people may startle them.įood and drink are severed throughout the grounds and you’re not allowed to bring your own. During the week day the event starts from 5pm and on weekends from 11am, Wurstfest is open come rain or shine. The current entry fee is $8 for adults ($6 if booked in advance) and all children under 12 go in for free. Other events include the Wurstfest Lacrosse Invitational, Wurst Five Mile Run and the Kunsthalle which is a display of arts and crafts. One of them being “Frankenwurst”, this is a live theatre performance about the King Sausage empire.
The festival now runs over 10 days and starts on the first Friday of November, it has a number of events scattered throughout the days to keep everyone entertained. The events allow money to be raised for a number of community projects within New Braunfels, it prides it self on knowing that each visitor can leave realising that as well as having an awesome time, the money they spent is going to worthwhile causes. Wurstfest operates as a non-profit corporation with its mission to support local commerce mostly through tourism. 2014 will be the 53 rd annual Wurstfest festival. Since then the festival has just been getting bigger and better each year, in 2006 the event was broadcasted on ABC’s Good Morning America Show live. It was only in 1964 that the event was moved to New Braunfels and that same year the amount of visitors had tripled to well over 30,000 with an estimated 5,000 pounds of sausages consumed during the festival. The original name of the festival changed several times at the beginning, it was originally called the Sausage Festival, then Wurst Week, and finally Wurstfest. The idea behind Wurstfest is to celebrate the German culture in New Branfels, one should expect lots of beer to be flowing and many top quality tasting sausages, consider Wurstfest as the Oktoberfest equivalent. The Wurstfest festival in New Braunfels started up in 1961 as a one day event showcasing various types of sausages for the public to feast on. 2015 Dates are November 7th -16th “The 10 Day Salute to Sausage”
