Fastnacht
Mainz is known for its Carnival celebrations. They take place on Shrove Tuesday. The bright and iridescent procession, carried out on the Monday before Lent is world-famous and this is an impressive hallmark of the attention paid to customs and traditions in the streets of Mainz.

Wine festival
The wine festival takes place in the idyllic city park, where the national drink of Mainz can be sampled in a contemplative atmosphere. The enjoyment of wine-tasting is a part of life which locals cannot do without to enjoy a high quality of life - and of course the visitor to Mainz knows how to appreciate the endless assortment of wines available

Johannisfest
This festival takes place in the city centre, considered to be dedicated to the city's great son, Gutenberg.
