If you’re looking forward to all the Munich Fasching Parties this Karneval week – we’ve got you covered. Check out our round up of what’s happening in town to celebrate the season.
The city of Munich is finally celebrating carnival again! As well as the popular street carnival “München narrisch” in the old town, Shrove Tuesday (Faschingsdienstag) will feature the traditional market women’s dance at the Viktualienmarkt and a multitude of amazing parties around the city!
You can find a fantastic breakdown of them and the important details below, viel spaß!
München Narrisch
After a two year long dry spell, the street party to end all street parties is back – join the parade of fools traipsing from Stachus to Marienplatz. You won’t be out of place in costume here – and with a massive program of live music, dance performances, food and festivities throughout the week, you’ll be spoiled for choice.
The self proclaimed King of Ballerman Mickie Krause will be partying it up on Tuesday – starting at Stachus at 3pm and finishing in Marienplatz at 5pm

Tanz der Marktweibe
Spend the day plundering through the wares at Viktualienmarkt – there are plenty of local brews, wines, local schnapps and snacks on offer all day accompanied by sweet beats courtesy of the crew at Goldener Reiter.
