The Musikexpress, a popular caterpillar ride, will also be in attendance, catching the eyes of young thrill-seekers.

Games stands, shooting ranges, and three children's rides round out the fun offerings. Satisfy your hunger and thirst with delicious fair treats provided by Walter Söhngen's colleagues in Friemersheim.
