Mosel Wine Festivals (weekends, April-November – annually – various towns along Mosel River)
During the summer, many of the towns lining the river Mosel hold their annual Wine Festivals. For several days life takes place on the streets, local wine and food is served all day and music is in the air. Even the smallest Mosel town will hold a wine festival at some point during the year and in the summer you are very likely to find a festival every weekend. Some of the bigger and well-known celebrations include Pünderich (18-20 May), Cochem (6-10 June), Zell (10-13 June), Traben-Trarbach (8-9 July) and Bernkastel-Kues (17-19 August).
