Diplomat Representing Upper Franconia Region
In the heart of Germany, the city of Bamberg has joined hands with Austria's Fasching stronghold, Villach, as Bamberg Mayor, Jonas Glüsenkamp, was appointed as the "NÄRRity Ambassador for Upper Franconia" by the Fasching Guild Landskron. This appointment took place during a visit to the Villach Kirchtag, where Glüsenkamp was bestowed with a special order by the guild's board as a symbol of his new role. The certificate of appointment was also issued to him during this visit. The Fasching Guild Landskron, based in Villach Kirchtag, has the authority to appoint ambassadors for Karntner Fasching events worldwide. This appointment makes Glüsenkamp the ambassador for Fasching events worldwide, representing Upper Franconia in the grand tradition of Villach. This new role is particularly significant as Fasching Tuesday is a specific day for Fasching events. The Bamberg BRK Rosenmontag ball, a Fasching event in Bamberg, will be a representation of the great Fasching tradition of Villach, with Glüsenkamp planning to wear the special order at this event. Villach, known for its high viewing figures on ORF during the annual broadcast of "Villacher Fasching" on Fasching Tuesday, is considered Austria's Fasching stronghold. The Karntner Fasching Guild, based in Villach, is a partner city of Bamberg, further strengthening the bond between the two cities. It's worth noting that the current ambassador of Carinthian carnival traditions, representing them at carnival events worldwide outside Austria, is not explicitly named in the available search results. However, with Glüsenkamp's appointment, Bamberg now has its own ambassador for Karntner Fasching events. The special order received by Glüsenkamp is allowed to be worn at all Fasching events worldwide, making him a visible symbol of the shared Fasching tradition between Bamberg and Villach. This appointment is a testament to the growing cultural ties between the two cities and the enduring spirit of Fasching.
