Gartler engaging in activities at the Local Governance School
Prepare for a vibrant and blooming adventure as the Bavarian State Garden Show takes place in Furth im Wald from May 22 to October 5, 2025. During this period, Furth im Wald will transform into a lush and colourful space, filled with diverse displays, workshops, and activities for visitors of all ages [1][2].
The event will feature themed garden landscapes, innovative floral displays, and large-scale architectural structures such as the Parkarena, a pioneering timber roof structure offering space for concerts and cultural events [1][4]. This venue serves as a hub for community gatherings and likely hosts related workshops and performances throughout the show’s duration [4].
Highlights for August
Although a detailed day-by-day schedule for the week of August 4 to 11, 2025, is not explicitly listed, visitors can expect a variety of exciting events during this time. On August 5th, the OGV Runding will offer ideas for birdhouses, boxes, and willow craft items [1].
From August 9th to 11th, the focus will shift to beautiful and fragrant lavender, as the OGV Pemfling takes centre stage [1].
Family-Friendly Activities and the Drachenstich
For families and children, the Bavarian State Garden Show offers interactive workshops and adventure trails, although no exact program is detailed for the specific dates of August 4 to 11, 2025 [1][2]. However, visitors can look forward to creative and educational experiences inspired by nature and local culture [2].
In addition to the garden show, the city of Furth im Wald hosts the famous “Drachenstich” (Dragon Play) in early August, a historic folk play featuring a large mechanical dragon [5]. This cultural highlight adds a legendary and festive dimension to visitors' experience during that time.
To get the exact daily schedule and details about workshops and children's activities specifically for the week of August 4 to 11, 2025, it would be best to consult the official State Garden Show website or contact the event organizers directly [1][2].
