French & Germany Wine or Any Other Festivals in August

We will be in Germany, France, and Austria in the first half of March. Does anybody know of any festivals that would be going on that time of year? If so where?

Chris, <BR>You won't encounter any wine festivals as early as the beginning of August. Most don't occur until about the second week of September through October and in some cases well into November. Are there any other types of festivals? Assuredly there are but where will you be? It's difficult to recommend festivals and fairs not knowing more specifics regarding your itinerary and your interests. Fill us in with some details. Where will you be, when?
