Answers:
In Germany, there is a festival for nearly everything you can think of. That being said:
Beer and wine festivals are held in the spring and fall.
There are childrens' festivals like the one in Dinkelsbuhl.
There are music festivals like the great Wagner weeks at Bayreuth.
There is a festival for the plum harvest in Baden.
There is an onion fair at Boppard on the Rhine.
The festival of the Billy Goat Auction at Deidesheim dates to 1404.
Religious festivals are equally numerous and diverse.
Saints' days are often celebrated with costumed processions.
On Corpus Christi flowered barges cross the Bavarian lake Chiemsee.
On St. John's Day, bonfires are leapt to celebrate the summer solstice.
In fall, harvest festivals merge the secular and sacred and churches are decorated with sheaves of wheat and fruits of the fields.
Germany, like many places, celebrates a pre-Lenten carnival, especially in Koln and Munich. Mummers and maskers roam the streets with floats and broadsheets. Drinking and dancing fill the nights.
Of course, there is Munich's Oktoberfest.
Every fall, the grape harvest is celebrated in a similar tone in hundreds of small wine towns. They celebrate with the tradition called Schunkeln, where party-goers around a table link arms, sway to and fro, and sing heartily.
At Easter, the Easter Bunny hides colored eggs around the house and yard for children to find.
For the Whitsun Festival families take to the country for a traditional outing.
There are Christmas fairs, in which the streets are filled with stalls full of bells and balls and angels and stars to decorate the tree. The city of Nurnberg is famous for its toys sold at this festival.
German Christmas is still a nostalgic and traditional occasion. In preparation, an Advent wreath is hung in the dining room or set on the table. Though the family gets together and the big Christmas dinner is on Christmas Day, Christmas Eve is also a big night for celebrating. The first record of a Christmas tree comes from Germany in 1605. Eating and drinking are festive and generous but not exuberant; the main emphasis is on the figures and symbols of the Christian faith.
In Germany, it is the Christ Child, not Santa Claus, who brings the gifts. The gifts are not stacked under the tree, but placed in little piles on tables.
Saint Nicholaus is celbrated on his own day on December 6. Children hang a stocking before the door or window, and on the day it will be filled with gifts.
Christmas foods can include anything the family likes, but there are a few traditional mainstays. These include apples, nuts and almonds.
Pfeffernusse (spice cookies)
Dresdner Stollen (Dresden Christmas Fruit Bread)
Mandel-Halbmonde (Almond Crescent Cookies)
S-Geback (S-Shaped Butter Cookies)
Lebkuchen Hauschen (Gingerbread House)
These are just a few notes for you. I must point out, I am not from Germany. It would be great if some of our German friends could note some of their favorite foods and traditions.
