A trachtenfest is a festival where traditional German costumes are worn, such as dirndl for women and lederhosen for men.


Lederhosen are short or knee-length leather breeches worn as traditional garments in some areas of German speaking countries.
The longer ones are called Bundhosen or Kniebundhosen. Once they were common workwear in Central Europe but now they are associated with Bavaria or the Tyrol region and are popular during Oktoberfest events.
