Karneval

Overview

Pretzels. Pork knuckle. Sauerkraut. Schnapps. Steins of weissbier. They're all part of a damn fine night out in Germany, and, thanks to Brisbane's home of all things Deutschland-related, the same is true in Woolloongabba. That applies whenever the Brisbane German Club is open, and even more so on February 25.

Because there ain't no party like a German party — or, es gibt keine Party wie eine deutsche Party — the Vulture Street favourite is throwing a Karneval, aka an evening of eating, drinking and fun that dates back to the middle ages. You know that the first two will be taken care of given that their menu includes the biggest range of German beers in Brisbane, plus staple foods such as schnitzel, wurst and fried potatoes.

As for the latter part, expect live performances of both the music and dancing kind, which means that the one-man-band that is DJ Andrew is likely to pop up. Plus, really get into the spirit by dressing up, and you could take home a prize.
