Munich Springfest kicks off in true Bavarian fashion with a spectacular parade where the traditionally-dressed vendors and brewers travel along the streets to the festival venue.
The breweries’ decorated horse-drawn carts are a fantastic sight to behold as they move the beer barrels to the festival ground.
Be prepared for the loud sounds of the “Boellerschuetzen” (shooting into the air with mini hand cannons) accompanying the parade.
As they arrive at the beer tents, each beer tent band will perform a concert at the entrance.
Food and Drink
Munich Springfest has plenty of great food and drinks on offer.
Bavaria food is hearty and delicious, and you’ll find all your favourites on offer: Bratwurst, knuckle of port, rolled porked roast, plus much more.
Sweet tooths are well catered for with traditional offerings such as gingerbread, roasted almonds, and toffee apples, to name just a few.
And then, of course, there is the beer: Paulaner wheat beer, Augustiner Beer, and Spaten Fruehlingsfest Hell.
Prost!
