Christopher Street Day Munich

Christopher Street Day is an annual LGBT celebration and politcal event held in various cities around Germany (notably Berlin and Cologne). This year, the Munich event will be held over two days around Marienplatz under the motto "We want more. For Munich".

11. August: Politischer Auftakt (11-12 Uhr, Marienplatz)
11. August: Politparade (Start: 12 Uhr, Marienplatz)
11./12. August: Straßenfest (Marienplatz/Rindermarkt)
11. August: CSD-Rathausclubbing (!!!)

More info (german) here

Obviously not exactly my thing, but ill be doing most of the stages and technik for it. find it strange that no one mentioned it before.

heheheh I didn't want to start loads of puff threads innit.

It's also known as Pride Weeks this year as the LETRA Strassenfest in Angertor Strasse this Saturday 4th August and the
SUB Hans-Sachs Strassenfest the week after CSD on Saturday 18th August.

Bring your drinking heads, it's a massive bender for the next few weeks!

If anyone want to go Rathaus Clubbing on 11th you need to try and get your mitts on the FEW remaining tickets NOW!
Afaik, the Munich Ticket network has already sold out.

berny - posting poofter posts for poofters since 1971 (when gay was invented apparently)

apt choice of words there MT !

LMFAO

There's the vague idea floating around at the minute of a few TTers doing "quiet afternoon drinks" on the Sunday in Marienplatz.
Pumps Race?

Will be in town for the pumps race, but cant stand csd saturday.

P

I have to stay sober on the Saturday...

Town is already jammers full of people up for a big one.

ive rarely had so much fun building up an event. first and foremost, all the technik is from the kulturreferat (who are part city techinical division, part hippy/punk commune) and its so much fun explaining to ur-münchener what bayerischefest is taking place on the weekend. the looks of "oh dear jesus" are fantastic.

but fuck it, im off to (near) berlin with the best band ive found in munich in 3 years ( www.mexicanelvis.com ) so ill be back on sunday morning to clear up after the rathaus clubbing mess. hope yis have a good time.

Thanks, the rainbow flags certainly brighten up the Platz on such a dark day!

There's been a bit of a change of the show programm, the Canadian group "The Hiden Cameras" have been added to the program at the last minute and are on stage at Marienplatz around 8PM tomorrow. Come really recommended.

typical shite csd weather... enjoy the partying people

Shame about the shite weather, probably gonna deter some of those super kinky outfits that the lesbian ladies wear for this event.

So who else is going to look at the funny folk today? I shall drop by and have a beer keep myself amused.

We may wander down at some time in the afternoon, depends on the gastric situation
