One of the best things to do year-round in New Braunfels is Wurstfest. It only happens during the fall, meaning that one of the best times to vacation with New Braunfels Escapes is autumn. Here’s a handy list of wonderful and fun things to do in New Braunfels at Wurstfest.

  • Eat and drink! Beer, wine, and distilled spirits are on the festival grounds. Specifically delicious German and Texas craft beer.
  • If you happen to drink too much, that’s OK. Make sure that you are familiar with the Wurstwagen. It’s a shuttle service that will pick you up from the area of Park & Ride or for group pick-up from private locations.
  • Cheer on participants in the Masskrugstemmen. It is a traditional Bavarian endurance and strength contest. Contestants hold a stein filled with beer, approximately five lbs, straight out. Whoever has their beer the longest wins. 
  • Take part in the unique Texas crafts, games, carnival rides, and more.
  • Take your food or drink and enjoy the live music and stage acts. For instance, check out the Die Bayrischen Hiatamadln, a ladies’ party and show band from the Greater Munich area. Or grab a seat and listen to the Ennis Czech Boys. Check out the complete list of live acts here
