Creative costumes: This is what the fools are coming up with this year. It's now considered disreputable to dress up as an Eskimo or paint your skin black.

More individual costumes in the country than in the city. A common costume not only attracts attention, but also strengthens the feeling of togetherness. In Benediktbeuern, the motto is jungle animals; in Bichl the focus is on the pantheon of Mount Olympus. In Bad Tölz-Wolfratshausen, inspiration can be found in BenedikTbeuERN.
