Spark festival in Vorarlberg: Chaos and fire spells on Sunday!

In the night of March 9, 2025, the long preparation time of the St. Anton spark guild was suddenly ended by an early fire of the spark. Despite this setback, the committed spark fifths did not give up. You immediately caught a new spark, which should be on fire on the evening of the spark Sunday at 7:00 p.m. The fire brigade St. Anton and Lorüns was recognized for their quick commitment in this predicament, after they quickly brought the flames under control, as reported.

The weekend is all about traditional winter outlets, with over 130 sparks that burn all over Vorarlberg. On Friday, March 7, a large number of events were already carried out, including torches and burning several sparks in the municipalities of Hohenems and Götzis, which captivated the audience. Other spectacular torchlights and spark fire also took place on Saturday, March 8, where, among other things, the Wolfurt community came up with impressive fireworks. This was also shown in planned events for the Sunday, which contain a large number of children's brisk trains and the great enlightenment of the sparks at 7:00 p.m. in various places, such as RZG

The preparations and the commitment of the communities are unmistakable, because despite the challenges, the Vorarlberg tradition of sparks is in full splendor. With a lot of enthusiasm and community work, the high art of wintering has been kept alive, even if it was overshadowed by incidents such as the fire in St. Anton.
