Gärtnertag (Gardeners' Day) at Viktualienmarkt
Events all day long, Tuesday 7.Aug.2007
Does anyone know what this is? Its happening at Viktuali today but I haven't seen any info about it - I've checked out the Munich.de site which helpfully just shows a picture and no information or timing of or about the event... Any info would be good as it looks like it could be fun..
Here is a short description (in German): http://www.muenchen.de/Rathaus/39520/index.html

On Tuesday, August 7th, the Viktualienmarkt will be celebrating its traditional Gärtnertag (Gardeners' Day). It kicks off at 8am with a concert, and then at 10.30am a procession of carts decorated with flowers, vegetables and fruit will wind their way along Frauenstraße, Blumenstraße, around the Schrannenhalle to Peterskirche, accompanied by brass bands. There’ll be a service at the church from 11-12pm, after which the procession will continue through Marienplatz towards the Hofbräuhaus.

A parade in honour of the gardener is the highlight of the annual Gardener's Day on Tuesday 7 August. Visitors to the market can look forward to festive concert stages, a sea of flowers and an abundance of fruit and vegetables - accompanied by numerous surprises at the market.
