Don your lederhosen/dirndl or favorite soccer jersey (or wear both!) on Saturday, March 7 for The Domes’ upcoming “Germany Under Glass” festival. The event will celebrate the 25th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall, the centennial anniversary of the start of World War 1 and Germany’s winning of the 2014 World Cup.
Authentic German foods and desserts will be aplenty and this year also offers a Biergarten featuring German beer, pretzels, landjaegers (semi-dried sausages) and roasted almonds. T-shirts, glass ornaments and custom-made dirndls will be available for purchase and the entire family is sure to enjoy the dancing, music, crafts and games galore.
General admission is $7 for everyone 18 and older; $5 for seniors, persons with disabilities, students and youth 6-17-years-old; and free for children five and under. For more information, call 414-257-5600 or click here.
