Landlords in Landshut have made necessity a virtue - and organized a drive-in double . Guests can not only buy almonds, gingerbread hearts and the like, but also experience the festive atmosphere in their cars: they drive through a large marquee , can see photos and videos from previous years on screens, and there is also music. "People sit there in lederhosen and dirndls and celebrate ten minutes of dult," said organizer Patrick Schmidt.
