Opernplatzfest July 2, 2013...Somewhere in Hessen...Day 37

Back to Frankfurt for another festival!

Today we took a brief visit to a week-long festival called the Opernplatzfest.  This festival touts the slogan "eat the World" as there are foods from all over the world offered here.

The opening "gate" to this free event.

We hit the fest on day 2 around 6pm and there were plenty of people still dressed in business attire...a perfect "happy hour" type of event!  Our first stop...Apple (apfel) wine!

The traditional apple wine glass.

Sabine saying "cheers".
I spotted these huge pans of Italian goodness...


Heard music coming from somewhere close by...so we meandered over to take a look...

The Lady sang "Simply the Best" by Tina Turner and killed it!

My man was jammin...see video below!





Some more random shots of the festival.

The amazing old opera house, formal name Alte Oper.

Opera house and fountain.

Many tents offering various types of food.

More tents of goodness.

Goodbye to the Opernfest.
It was an interesting few hours of good music, food aromas, apple wine and people watching.
