Special evenings in New York

After months of summer dreaming, the doors of Steubenburg swing open once more! Brooklynia launches Season 167/168 with its Opening Schlaraffiade, and we are not celebrating alone: our friends from neighboring Realm Totowa (161) cross over from New Jersey to raise their voices with us in the first Weckruf of the year. One thing is certain — Schlaraffen do not take summers off; they simply spend them planning the next gathering. Guests are warmly welcome to share the magic of this opening night!

The UHU tree shines brightest when friends gather beneath it. Brooklynia's festive Reychsausritt "Unter dem UHUbaum" brings together two neighboring realms for a joint Uhubaumfeyer: Brooklynia (123) and Realm Totowa (161) celebrate the Schlaraffian equivalent of Christmas with all the warmth and ceremony the season deserves. One of the most magical evenings in the Schlaraffian calendar — and a particularly welcoming night for first-time guests who want to discover what makes this ancient game so special.

The season's grand finale brings together two of the Schlaraffian year's most meaningful moments. The Wahlschlaraffiade (Election Schlaraffiade) sees Brooklynia choose its new throne pair for the coming season — a moment of ceremony, humor, and community decision. And the Schlussschlaraffiade closes Season 167/168 with a heartfelt remembrance of all Schlaraffen who have departed for the great castle of Ahall. An evening of gratitude, continuity, and the particular bittersweet joy of endings that are also beginnings. For guests attending for the first time: this is Schlaraffia at its most complete. Welcome to one of the finest evenings in the Schlaraffian calendar.
