The anticipation is great: the fools of Kitzingen are planning this session again with all known events. And there is something new: after the traditional opening of the carnival period by the carnivalists on Friday 11 November at 11:11 at the Falterturm, in the late afternoon there will be a premiere in front of the Kitzinger town hall. For the first time there is a storm in the Kitzinger Fasenachter town hall at 5.11pm. As Bertram Dehn, chief executive of KiKaG pointed out, upon request, this is “a one-time replacement for our usual order commander”.
The rest of the schedule: on January 27, 2023, at 7:11 pm, the women’s session will take place at the Fastnacht Academy in Kitzingen. There, on February 4th, from 7:11 pm, the Weinselige Fools’ Meeting will also be held. February 18 belongs to the children’s carnival in the Florian-Geyer-Halle from 2.11pm. And finally, on February 20, from 6:11 pm, there will be the Shrove Monday session with the award ceremony of the Schlappmaulordens in the Florian-Geyer-Halle.
Who is present at the KiKaG meeting on Shrove Monday
When it comes to losers, this time no one is holding their breath; the honor goes to the comedian and actress Luise Kinseher, proclaimed a year ago the new bearer of the Schlappmaul-Order. One year late she crowns, she will now take over the order from Prime Minister Markus Söder, who will give the laudatory speech as the previous bearer of the order.
Some well-known faces of Fastnach TV, such as Peter Kuhn, Ines Procter and Wolfgang Huskitsch, will be present at the Mardi Gras session. Added to this are new acts such as “The Party Birds”, which guarantee an extended closing point. According to the organizers, “Die Lauserten” of KG Humor Merzig, a group of all-male dance guards from the Saarland, are also on board for the first time.
As always, on Ash Wednesday, February 22nd, at 11:11 am, the session will end with the washing of the bags and the end of the session at the Falterturm.
