On June 28, 2024, the old town festival in Waiblingen will be ceremoniously opened for the 48th time.

A highlight of the old town festival will be the farewell concert by the well-known Waiblingen band Rosa Fussel, which will play on Friday from 8.30 p.m. on the town hall square. The band has made a name for itself with its soul music, which always creates a party atmosphere, and has appeared on stage at the Old Town Festival many times. Her performances are famous for hits like “Brick House” by the Commodores and “Mustang Sally” by Wilson Pickett. Special attention will be focused on the band as this is their last concert at the Altstadtfest, as zvw.de reports.
A versatile program
The Old Town Festival offers a varied program. On Saturday the day begins with a morning pint, where the band Jonge Remstäler will perform on Zeller-Platz from 11.30 a.m. A concert with Saxissimo will be organized for families on Saturday at 3:30 p.m. in St. Michael's Church. This is all about entertainment for young and old.
In addition, visitors can experience the “Waiblingen rocks” event on Saturday between 3 p.m. and 7 p.m. on the town hall square. On Sunday from 11 a.m. there will be a fanfare by the volunteer fire department. The organizers have provided a variety of musical accompaniment, which will be heard at various locations throughout the festival.
