In a ceremony during a visit to the Villach Kirchweih, the Fasching Guild Landskron appointed Bamberg Mayor Jonas Glüsenkamp as the ambassador for Karntner Fasching traditions. This significant appointment recognises the strong connection between Bamberg and Villach, particularly during the Fasching season.

As part of his new role, Jonas Glüsenkamp received a special order from the guild's board, a symbol of his appointment. This special order can be worn by the ambassador at all Fasching events worldwide, including the Bamberg BRK Rosenmontag ball.

The Bamberg BRK Rosenmontag ball is a Fasching event that showcases the partnership between Bamberg and Villach, the Fasching capital of Austria. This year, the event is particularly significant as Jonas Glüsenkamp will represent the Fasching traditions of both Bamberg and Villach. It is expected that representatives of the Karntner Fasching Guild will also attend the ball.

The appointment of Jonas Glüsenkamp as the NÄRRity Ambassador for Upper Franconia is a testament to the popularity of Fasching traditions in Austria, as evidenced by the high viewing figures of "Villacher Fasching" on ORF every Fasching Tuesday. The broadcast attracts a large audience, indicating the enduring appeal of Fasching traditions in Austria.

Jonas Glüsenkamp's attendance at the Bamberg BRK Rosenmontag ball, wearing the special order, is a symbol of his commitment to promoting and preserving Fasching traditions. The city of Bamberg is excited to welcome the ambassador and looks forward to celebrating Fasching with Villach, its partner city.
