We’re going hog wild!

If you’ve never been to a real hog roast (or spanferkel as the Germans call it), now’s your chance!

Celebrate dads and summer with us at Das GartenGrillFest, a backyard barbecue brunch (say that 5 times fast!) for our Athenaeum friends and family.

Grab a plate and get in line for a special feast prepared by our hog master Mike Gomez from Gomez BBQ, along with brunch favorites and traditional sides from The Rathskeller.

This is an all ages event, so bring the whole haus! General Admission tickets include a buffet-style brunch with live music, and outdoor games in the Biergarten. Come join us for this one-of-a-kind celebration!

Live Music

Enjoy live performances by The 78’s from 10:30 AM – 12:00 PM and Indianapolis Liederkranz German Band from 12:30 – 2:00 PM.

Food & Drinks

We’re serving up some savory and sweet things! Indulge in hog roast sandwiches crafted by our hog master, Mike Gomez from Gomez BBQ, accompanied by brunch favorites and traditional German sides from The Rathskeller.
