What can I say? Except for http://www.fouer.lu/ (or http://www.funfair.lu/).Yep. It’s a carnival (or funfair)/kermis/fête foraine. And almost like I’ve seen before. Except: just a tad more Luxembourgian at that :) That means: slightly bigger than you’d except at first, and vastly more people than I would expect. I just visited opening night. Now I realise that it’s holiday time here in Luxembourg, so it’s not so strange that there are some people. But there are not just “some” people — it seems more like there might be some Luxembourgians not. Or, better: not yet.
And the setup is also typically Luxembourgian: many foodstalls, big drinkstalls, and there are some shop-stalls on the side. Quite unlike what I am used to, but I do appreciate it quite a lot. Kind of curious how my visitors will feel about it (4 visits planned during the Schueberfouer so far). Will let you know!
PS: Just found the Wiki page for the funfair. Dunno if all that stuff still holds, but free access for merchants anywhere… no taxes… sounds cool for them. And they’re expecting 2 million people this year — wow. Well, I’ll be doing my best to make that number a reality ;-)
