Pit & Pitch

BBQ, sports and summer vibes

The outdoor area of the BBQ hall became the meeting point for enjoyment, action and a relaxed summer feeling. Inspired by the football World Cup taking place parallel and American tailgating culture, you could expect a mix of live BBQ, athletic challenges and community atmosphere.

Participate, try things out, enjoy

Whether it was the goal wall, football boxes or cornhole – here you could test your accuracy and get active yourself.
Right next to it, the BBQ Pick-up invited visitors to sample the food: you could look forward to a varied selection of BBQ creations and different cooking methods – from vegetarian and vegan options to fish and meat specialists.
Between 11:00 and 16:00, there was also a live BBQ programme in the outdoor area, featuring shows, tips and fresh tastings straight from the grill.
The programme was organised in collaboration with Gaumencunst. Ball Inclusive was the partner for the sporting activities.
