Maschsee Lake Festival in Hannover, Germany
Heading to Germany anytime soon, Road Trips Foodies? From now through 20 August 2017, Lower Saxony’s largest open-air festival will offer international cuisine, free concerts, a children’s program, a cabaret, and party events right in the middle of Hannover (and there’s no admission charge).
With typical regional dishes from the Tyrol to the Yukon and from Cape Town to Japan, there is something to suit even the most discerning foodie at the Maschsee Lake Festival. Start your culinary trip on the western shore of Maschsee Lake and get the Mediterranean feeling with paella and Spanish tapas. Further north, there is a choice of international specialties from Canada, the Tyrol, Miami, South Africa and Greece.
Along the Rudolf-von-Bennigsen promenade on the eastern shore, the newly designed food village serves a diverse mix of international food-to-go. The journey continues via San Francisco to the next stop at “Geibel”, where original Hamburg “lobscouse”, fish specialities from the famous Sylt company Gosch, farmhouse platters and a culinary trip around France are all waiting to be discovered.
And if you want a break, relax in one of the sun loungers on Pier Island. From the new Löwenbastion, visitors can enjoy wonderful views of the vibrant northern shore while enjoying healthy food and exclusive wines. The lively Irish atmosphere just a few yards further on makes this the perfect place to hang around. Finally, you can look forward to a selection of classic barbecue food at Maschseequelle.
