Events

Celebrate together
& enjoy

From a spontaneous after-work beer to a lively Carnival party – there is always something going on at Brauhaus zum Pfaffen all year round. Some events are simply part of who we are; others are true Cologne traditions. Stop by and celebrate with us – we look forward to welcoming you.

Carnival

From Weiberfastnacht to Veilchendienstag and Nubbel burning, we celebrate the fifth season — with music, costumes and plenty of Pfaffen beer.

Carnival societies are also very welcome. Please use our enquiry form for this.

Public Viewing

We show the big matches of the European and World Championships at our public viewing. Great atmosphere, cold beer and cheering together.

New Year’s Eve party & hangover cure

We will ring in the new year together with music and good vibes. And because January 1 can be tough, we serve a hearty hangover breakfast on New Year’s Day and cool Pfaffen beer to help you recover.
