A Styrian Roas in Ligist

The Roas in St. Bartholomä will bring life back to the village on July 5. A path full of music, encounters, and living traditions is created around the church and village square. The Roas leads through the center of St. Bartholomä from station to station. Brass music resonates from yards, choirs sing old songs, and young groups showcase their talents. In between, there is time for conversations, a glass of cider, and regional delicacies.

St. Bartholomä is located west of Graz and is known for its vibrant village community. This is exactly what characterizes this day. Associations, musicians, and neighbors collaboratively shape the program. Each spot tells its own little story. Sometimes it sounds traditional, other times surprisingly new. Children run between the stations, while older visitors stop and listen. This fosters a sense of togetherness, which is typical for the Graz Region.
The exact program will follow!

The paths are short, everything is easily accessible. The Regio-Bus 712 runs every two hours from Graz to St. Bartholomä. Those who want can stay all day until evening; those who arrive later can easily find connections. The Roas is not a grand spectacle but rather a genuine festival day in the village. Music, regional cuisine, and open doors define the scene. St. Bartholomä showcases how vibrant traditions can be in Styria on this day.
