Munich / Berg am Laim – As the summer holidays come to an end, Berg am Laim will, as always, throw a celebration. This year too, the local citizens’ association, together with many clubs and organizations from the district and with support from Borough Council 14, invites everyone to meet right outside their doors, discover what’s happening in their community, and enjoy the festivities. On Sunday, September 14, from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m., Baumkirchner Straße, the Grüne Markt, and Behrpark will be transformed into a lively festival area.
Program on Baumkirchner Straße
At the Grüne Markt stage, guests can look forward to a varied music program. The festival kicks off at 11 a.m. with the Blechmucer, a five-piece brass band from Munich’s east side. Around 1 p.m., during the music break, children and adults are invited to Behrpark, where magician René will entertain with a mix of magic and humor.
From 3 p.m. until the festival ends, the band The Movement will perform, bringing funk and soul to the stage with outstanding musicianship and a wide-ranging repertoire.
The beer garden at the Grüne Markt will be run by the host of Steinhauser Einkehr. Culinary offerings will also be provided by Restaurant Pastello, ice cream parlor Gelatino, and Café Pfarrsaal. The café at St. Michael’s parish hall (Baumkirchner Straße 26) opens at 1 p.m. and welcomes cake donations, which can be dropped off on Sunday between 11 a.m. and 1 p.m. Proceeds from the cake sales will support the cultural activities of the citizens’ association and the youth work of St. Michael’s altar servers.
