Experience the warmth and magic of a German Christmas at the GAI! Toast the season with a beer or warm up with some Glühwein (hot mulled wine), a bratwurst and pretzel, some homemade soup, or a slice of German cake. The Haus will be decorated from the Rathskeller to the ballroom, with music and seasonal goods for sale. Food and drink will be outdoors in our large heated tent. Come celebrate the traditions of a German Christmas with us!

Parking and Accessibility
Free parking is available in the GAI parking lot as well as on the surrounding streets. The GAI Haus is not ADA-accessible and we do not have a permanent or temporary ramp available at this time. The GAI is currently under construction as we add our new ADA-accessible entrance and restroom at the back of the Haus, helping make our space welcoming and accessible for all. The new ADA-accessible lift will provide access to the first floor of the GAI Haus only. If you have any questions, please call our main office at 651.222.7027.
