History & Tradition
The Radevormwald Wine Festival has been held since 2008, traditionally on the last weekend of June. It was founded by winemaker and restaurateur Schorsch Eger together with the then city event manager Hartmut Behrensmeier. Today the city of Radevormwald organises the festival independently, remaining true to the original concept. Many of the participating wineries have been present since the very first edition and now supply their loyal Radevormwald customers throughout the year.
