Bamberg's Mayor to Serve Behind the Bar at Sandkerwa 2025
The Bamberg Sandkerwa, a cherished local institution, is gearing up for its 75th anniversary, with a highlight making a comeback after a decade-long break [1]. As part of the celebrations, Bamberg's Second Mayor, Jonas Glüsenkamp, will be working at the beer tents during the event, continuing a tradition of service for a good cause.
Glüsenkamp has been a dedicated volunteer at the Sandkerwa for four consecutive years, and this year is no exception. He will be serving at the "Schwarzes Schaf" on August 25, 2025, from 7 pm, and at the "Kleinstadthafen" on August 21, 2025, from 6 pm. He will be joined by Sven Goller and René Tröger at the latter location.
All donations collected during Glüsenkamp's service at the Sandkerwa will go to the non-profit organization "Friend instead of stranger." This organization aims to use the money for integration work, helping to foster a more inclusive community in Bamberg.
Last year's donations benefited the out-of-school educational center "NEO Bamberg," and in 2023, they went to the contraceptive fund of the pregnancy counseling centers. The charity organization benefiting from the donations collected during Glüsenkamp's service at the Bamberg Sandkerwa 2025 is not explicitly named in the provided search results, but it is confirmed that Mayor Jonas Glüsenkamp serves at the Sandkerwa kickoff for a good cause in 2025, continuing the tradition from previous years [1].
Road closures and traffic restrictions are expected in the city area during the Sandkerwa, and the entry costs and special features of the event have been previously detailed in another article. The Bamberg Sandkerwa 2025 is set to begin on August 21, 2025. The "Schwarzes Schaf" can be found at Schranne 7, and the "Kleinstadthafen" is located at Leinritt 11a.
