Events and Noteworthy Moments from the Heddesdorfer Pentecost Celebration
Adrenaline Junkies, Buckle Up at Heddesdorf Pentecost Fair!
Here's your guide to the heart-pumping action at this year's folk fest
Folk festivals have a magnetic charm for attendees: Some are drawn to the social vibrance, others appreciate the tradition and repeated highlights. But let's be real, most folks are here for the rip-roaring excitement! At the Heddesdorf Pentecost fair, the throbbing epicenter of the Middle Rhine's folk scene, you'll find more than enough ways to get your adrenaline pumping. Boasting approximately 50 vendors, 6 kiddie attractions, and 11 ride and game businesses, this fest is a moto-mania playground. From beloved classics like bumper cars and Ferris wheels to the two top-tier thrill rides of the season, brace yourself for an unforgettable experience.
First up, "Evolution" propels the world's highest, transportable flying carousel skyward at an eye-popping 66 meters and speeds up to 140 km/h. Buckle up, daredevils, because this one's not for the faint of heart. With a built-in, on-board video system, you can cherish this death-defying adventure by capturing sharp images to share to your friends later. In comparison, the "Swing Up" may not be as terrifying, but it's no less enchanting. This retro amusement, popular on German festival sites in the '70s and '80s, was meticulously restored by Thoma Studios, an andrenach-based showman company, after a long hiatus at Tokyo's Toshimaen amusement park. Having made its grand comeback last November, it's now the hush-hush sensation among the ride businesses at this year's Heddesdorf Pentecost fair.
