The 69th edition in 2026 filled Auggen's historic centre around Ochsengasse, Sonnbergstrasse and the Rathausplatz with a 400 square metre festival tent, wine stands run by village associations and two stages of live music.
Tip: Sunday brings a traditional costume and customs parade through the village; Monday's Augge-Maert historic market is the quieter closing act.
The Kaiserstuhl cooperative's own autumn wine weekend opens with a Friday-evening ceremony and a festive tasting in the Winzersaal, then continues through the weekend with the co-op's full range poured in the village.
Tip: Book the Friday opening tasting in the Winzersaal ahead of time, it is smaller and more intimate than the weekend crowds outside.
A month-long harvest-season programme spread across Kaiserstuhl and Tuniberg vineyards, cellars, restaurants and village halls, with tastings, cellar tours and kitchen-party evenings run by dozens of local producers and venues.
Tip: Published village by village, not at one venue, check the current listing for the weekend nearest the estate you want to visit.
The 77th edition in 2026 paired a harvest-thanksgiving weekend with the village's wine festival: catering and live music in a festival tent, and a Sunday parade of flower-decorated floats through the Black Forest village.
Tip: Sasbachwalden is a compact half-timbered village, park at the edge and walk in rather than trying to find a spot near the festival tent.
Durbach's 63rd edition in 2026 ran three summer days in the village, with more than 120 Durbach wines and sparkling wines poured from tables across the festival grounds plus regional food and live music.
Tip: Durbach calls this the annual kickoff of Baden's major wine festivals, so it draws a crowd early; arrive Friday evening before the Saturday rush.
Around 400 wines and sparkling wines from the Markgraeflerland, Breisgau, Kaiserstuhl and other Baden districts are poured at stands circling Freiburg Muenster, alongside cheese spaetzle, Flammkuchen and Black Forest cherry cake.
Tip: Admission is free; buy the souvenir glass rather than bringing your own, the proceeds go toward the cathedral's upkeep fund.
