Cannstatter Wasen Frühlingsfest 2026

ESN Karlsruhe goes Stuttgarter Frühlingsfest 🍻🌸

You might be a bit disappointed that Oktoberfest isn't happening while you're in Germany – but don’t worry, we’ve got something just as awesome lined up for you! 😉

Stuttgart’s Frühlingsfest might not have the same global fame as Munich’s Oktoberfest, but did you know it’s actually the second largest beer festival in the world? 🎡🎶🍺

You can expect traditional German Lederhosen and Dirndls, Schlager music, fun festival rides, and of course tons of tasty beer! This date is also special for students, and many other ESN sections from South-West Germany will be joining – meaning: a huge party tent full of Erasmus, international and local students. The perfect opportunity to make new friends and have an amazing time! 🎉🙌

📅 April 19th, 2026
🕐 13:30 – 23.00
📍 Meeting point: Karlsruhe main station at 13:30 sharp ⏰
(If you join Weißwurstfrühstück, we will go to the main station all together)

What’s included?

🍺 Entry & reserved table at one of the most popular party tents

🍗 1 Maß Beer (1L) and 1 meal (choice of half chicken or cheese spaetzle)
