54th St. Agatha Beer Tent
One of the most traditional events in the inner Salzkammergut will take place this year from 26 to 28 September. This year, the Kirtagsbierzelt will take place in St. Agatha for the 54th time. The wooden construction of the beer tent, the music program at a pleasant volume, free admission on all days and an extensive amusement park attract visitors from near and far. The special flair of the event forms the basis for the best entertainment for young and old.
Alm Bar and Holzknechtnocka
On all three days there will be the Alm Bar in the outdoor area again this year. During the day there is a traditional wooden knecktnocka and in the evening there is a bar with folk music. The beer tent starts with the 53rd Pensioners' Afternoon of the market town of Bad Goisern. The St. Agatha fire brigade band will provide musical entertainment. Later, "Die Kaiserwälder" from Styria will provide the evening program. The morning pint on Sunday will be performed by the Mitterweißenbach music band. The music band Untersee will provide the good atmosphere for the fair hustle and bustle in the afternoon. The group "Edelweiss 3" will then bring the necessary momentum to the beer tent in the evening.
The "Blabler and Housewives Meeting" on Beer Tent Monday from noon marks the end of three days of "cheering, hustle and bustle, merriment". In addition, "M&M" will provide a good atmosphere in the tent and in the evening the "Salzkammergut Express" will be responsible for the musical entertainment.
As always, the local taxi companies ensure a safe way home after "jubilation, hustle and bustle, merriment" - at the fair and in the beer tent.
The net proceeds of the event will help the St. Agatha Fire Brigade to provide necessary rescue equipment and
equipment to finance . Further information is also available on the Internet at www. FreiwilligeFeuerwehr.at.
