Meals
Meal times are a great way to get together, so we will offer one communal meal per day for all workshop participants, friends, family and guests. Please if you would like to participate! (registration form). Friday and Saturday are evening meals, on Sunday we are setting up a „Music Brunch“ during the early afternoon. We always have left overs at the end of the weekend. Please bring a lunch box or container to take some food home with you 🙂
Alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks will be available at reasonable prices, coffee, homemade cake and snacks will also be offered during the workshop breaks to provide you with new energy. All the profits go towards the workshops, so you are helping the event by not bringing your own.
