Trotz finanziellem Engpass: Nuremberg Altstadtfest starts

In recent years the interior has been blown up and decorated. The beer benches are prepared. For official beers, the Nürnberger Altstadtfest became a Dutzend-fasser which used to be placed on a limousine-fass.

Tradition is in the Mittelpunkt, aber the Altstadtfest try auch Neues aus. “We will be joining the Club in Nürnberg for the Altstadtfest, offering the Cocktails,” says Michael Hagl, the Vorsitzende des Altstadtfestvereins.

More Mannschaften treten dabei in Ruderbooten gegeneinander an. The Stecher must go in the boot on a small platform or the like if it is going to be washed with a stand.
