Dithmarschen Cabbage Days

The Dithmarschen Cabbage Days (German: Dithmarscher Kohltage) are held annually in September in the city of Heide, Dithmarschen, Germany, as well as in other towns and villages in the Dithmarschen area. The festival is related to the fact that Dithmarschen is Europe's largest cabbage-growing region. Each year, over the six-day festival, a 'Cabbage Queen' is crowned and a giant cabbage pyramid is created, as well as there being celebrations of the region's food and culture.^[1]
