Very great popularity has been earned lately by the "Hammelfest" (“Mutton Festival”), held since 1981 on the second weekend in August. One can see from the licences borne by the cars parked at the fairground that visitors come from the whole Palatinate, the Saarland and the Frankfurt Rhine Main Region to this festival to pay their respects to the "Schafhalterverein Mittleres Glantal" (“Middle Glan Valley Shepherds’ Association”) and the Tourism Municipality of Ulmet with its widely known dining establishments and inns.
