U.S. and German leadership from Bavarian State Chancellery, U.S. Consul Munich, the cities of Grafenwoehr and Vilseck, surrounding counties, and 7th Army Training Command and U.S. Army Garrison Bavaria, cut the ribbon to open the 64th annual German-American Volksfest in Grafenwoehr, Germany, Aug. 1, 2025. Thousands of guests from areas both near and far attended the event, where they enjoyed a variety of activities such as carnival games, rides, retail booths, live music, and beer halls. Countless food and beverage vendors lined the festival grounds, offering a large variety of American and German culinary favorites. Equipment displays from the U.S. Army, Bundeswehr, and Nuremberg Airport were also open for guests to explore, strengthening ties between the military, civilian, and local communities. The USAG Bavaria annual Volksfest is the largest event of its type in Germany, drawing crowds from all over the country to celebrate the partnership and friendship between both nations.
