Wilhelmstraßenfest
Where: Wilhelmstraße (duh!), Wiesbaden
When: 10 - 11 June 2005
The Skinny: A co-worker writes...
This fest is possibly the best fest in all of Germany, and trust me, I have been to a few. The fest is free. Usually they have four large stages set up for live music. Wilhelm Straße is two blocks from the American Arms Hotel on Frankfurter Straße and runs all the way to the Casino (Kurhaus) and stadt theater. The arts and crafts offered for sale are some of the best I have ever seen. In the past they have had street performers throughout both days. Great food, wine, Sekt, bier and mixed drinks.
Now that I am starting to think about it, you will want to check the mixed drinks stand with the Brazilin girls shaking it up. When I start to drool on myself, Maggie usually drags me away so I can eventually regain some sort of composure.
Anyway, DO NOT MISS THIS FEST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
