Springfest in Munich
I'm surprised I've never heard of this, considering I was living in München at this time of year in 2000 and 2001...or maybe I just forgot...anyhoo, did you know there's a beer-centric folk festival in Munich in the spring?? It started yesterday and goes through May 12th, and takes place on the same fairgrounds (die Theresienwiese) as Oktoberfest, just on a smaller scale. They even call it die kleine Wiesn. Two giant beer tents instead of 14, but over 100 rides, a giant flea market, the ceremonial keg-tapping by the mayor, Dirndl and Lederhosen, a classic car display, a special day celebrating Bavarian folk traditions, and pretzels and Lebkuchen and horse-drawn keg carriages...y'know...Gaudi. :)
