Welcome to Wein am Rhein 2027 in Leverkusen
The wine festival “Wein am Rhein” is expected to return in 2027 to Neuland-Park in Leverkusen – by the Rhine, around the Sparkassen-Arena. The 2026 edition ran from 4 to 6 September and has ended; exact 2027 dates are not yet announced, but the event usually falls in early autumn. Free admission, wine stands, live music and outdoor food make it one of the Rhineland’s popular casual wine weekends.
