The biannual folk festival on the fairground at the ice rink is held in spring and fall. Many people in Frankfurt and the surrounding area therefore look forward to the Dippemess, which heralds the arrival of spring every year and - finally - draws the crowds back outside.
The spring edition always takes place around Easter. The fall Dippemess always begins in September. The Dippemess in Frankfurt am Main has a long history steeped in tradition.
The origins of the Dippemess date back to the Middle Ages. The name "Dippemess" is derived from "Dippe", a Hessian term for pots or jugs. Originally, the Dippemess was a market where household goods, especially pottery, were sold. Over time, the Dippemess developed into a folk festival that offered not only merchandise, but also entertainment and fun. Rides, fairground stalls and culinary delights became part of the festival.
