Whether in permanent pents or clubs - there is something for everyone, from traditional events to modern rides. Such festivities also like to attract larger crowds, which was clearly felt in Gifhorn. The joy and laughter of the children echoed through the streets, and the connection to the tradition was noticeable while the young majesties were celebrated.
