Rheingau Wine Week 2026

Ten days, one wine region, over 100 stands - from August 14 to 23, 2026, the area around Marktkirche, Schlossplatz and Dern'sches Gelände will once again be transformed into the "longest wine bar in the world".

Joie de vivre, lightness and hospitality

The Rheingau Wine Week - the world's largest Riesling tasting in the state capital of Wiesbaden - will be celebrated in the heart of the city center from August 14 to 23, 2026. For the 49th time, winegrowers from the Rheingau will be offering their wines and sparkling wines for tasting and enjoyment. The unique selling point of the Rheingau Wine Week is the special atmosphere on the squares between the town hall, market church and castle, in addition to the diverse, local range of wines on offer from the winegrowers.

Wine and gastronomy stands

At around 120 stands - around 100 wine stands, 20 catering stands, a water stand from ESWE-Versorgung, a Lotto Hessen sales stand and a charity stand "A light shines for you" - you will be spoiled with wine and sparkling wine from Wiesbaden and the Rheingau, refreshments and culinary delights.

Best entertainment on three stages

Around 50 bands provide musical entertainment on three stages - on the Schlossplatz, on the square in front of the Marktkirche and on the Dern'schen grounds.

Climate protection & sustainability

Plastic crockery and cutlery will be dispensed with again this year and there is a reusable bottle deposit of three euros. The official Wine Week wine glass is made of lighter glass and is more environmentally friendly, saving 315 kilograms of CO2 during its production. The glass - a popular collector's item - can be purchased for three euros at the Tourist Information and at eight stands at the Wine Week.
