Get ready to shake off the winter blues with a wacky pre-Lenten Festival! Bavarian Bierhaus is transforming into the ultimate party hub for FASCHING! The word Fasching originates from the German Fastenschank, meaning "the last serving of alcoholic beverages before Lent". Known as the "Fifth Season" in Germany, Fasching is a centuries-old tradition where the normal rules are tossed out the window. It's the time for Narrenfreiheit (Fools' Freedom)—your chance to wear masks, dress in wild costumes, and celebrate with plenty of bier before Lent begins.
