50 million liters of mulled wine are sold in Germany every year, which roughly corresponds to the number of people of legal age. So it’s fair to say that mulled wine is very popular, perhaps not least because it’s only available for a short time. If you also can’t get enough of the hot drink and want to sip it in January, then you shouldn ‘t miss the mulled wine festival in Bogenhausen. You can even enjoy mulled wine here until January!
📍 Location: Cosimastr. 5, 81925 Munich

Mulled wine festival with enchanted winter forest
As the name suggests, the mulled wine festival near the Cosimawellenbad is all about mulled wine. You can sample more than 35 varieties here, with names such as “Wolfsblut”, “Elfenzauber” and “Koboldtrank”. To help you decide from the huge selection, each mulled wine comes with a short description that explains the spices and aromas. Whether fruity-sweet or off-dry, white or red, with or without a shot, nothing is left to be desired here. If the small cup is not enough for you, you can order the “Glühwein-Hammer” for €20 and be served a measure.
If you need a change from mulled wine in between, you can get a hot Aperol, Hot Spicy Orange or Hot Caipi. Non-alcoholic options are also available so that everyone can enjoy delicious hot drinks. You can try classics such as hot chocolate and punch as well as non-alcoholic mulled wine or hot daiqiri. So a visit to the mulled wine festival is worthwhile for everyone.
Christmas market and children’s activities
The mulled wine festival is primarily about the eponymous drink, but there is still more to discover here. The wide range of sweet and savory food on offer, such as langos, crêpes, Baumstriezel and tarte flambée, will help to stave off hunger. In addition to these Christmas market classics, there is also international cuisine to try, such as Thai curry and Ugandan specialties. You can enjoy these either in the open air or in the spacious tents, depending on your mood and the weather.
Once you’ve regained your strength, you can admire the arts and crafts at the Christmas market and buy one or two new treasures, such as lambskins, glass art or jewelry. Wood sculptor Joachim Seitfudem will also be on hand to demonstrate his skills live. Meanwhile, children can take a spin on the nostalgic carousel or on the little train. After the fun ride, you can try your luck at throwing cans or at the wheel of fortune and win great prizes.
