Forget the beer barrels – in Frankfurt, we celebrate the green! The Grüne Soße Festival has been launching its 2026 season with a brand-new opening ritual that is uniquely our own: the official “Anwickeln”.

While other cities might tap a keg, we are honoring the hands that feed us. On Tuesday, April 28 at 4:00 PM, the freshest local herbs moved along a traditional conveyor belt. In a live showcase of local craftsmanship, nine expert farmers have hand-rolled and wrapped the legendary seven into their classic paper bundles right before your eyes.

This new opening ritual isn’t just a process; it’s a celebration of a local icon. We’re bringing the early-morning magic of the herb fields into the heart of the city to show exactly how much Frankfurt soul and hard work goes into every single package.
