Munich

Pride & Events

If there is one thing Munich is known for, it's Oktoberfest, a giant beer-tent festival that without fail ends in raucous Hefeweisen-soaked sing alongs with lederhosen- and dirndl-clad Germans. It's an event attended by people from all over the world and is reason enough to travel to the city. But Munich's Christopher Street Day, Germany's gay pride holiday, is also a real showstopper and brings gays and lesbians and friends from every corner of the Bavarian region to participate in the annual parade and party.
