Why do thousands of people get up in the middle [00:02:54] of the night for the legendary Kohel Ball, or Chef's Ball? [00:02:58] 150th anniversary of Wagner, why [00:03:01] does the city still attract devotees from [00:03:05] all over the world and changes in the world of fashion. [00:03:08] Why are black models more successful than ever today, [00:03:12] all that and much more in today's Euromax. [00:03:31] What was once a small gathering of dance lovers [00:03:35] of fast information, we pay attention to in the early morning hours in Munich's English Garden [00:03:38] has grown into a large annual event. Every year [00:03:42] thousands of people come to Kohel Pal, and the celebration begins [00:03:45] long before sunrise. Once [00:03:48] a year on the third Sunday in July, revelers get up before [00:03:52] dawn to attend Munich's Kohrl Ball, [00:03:55] known as the Chef's Ball. Nineteen-year-old Leonora Hampel [00:03:59] is already on her feet. From her small town in Bavaria, she drove for almost an hour [00:04:03] to reach Munich before the celebration [00:04:05] began. [00:04:07] I have to get ready, I still have to put on my dirndl [00:04:10] and put on makeup. It's not easy to get up at [00:04:14] 2 in the morning, but when it comes to the Kohelbal, it doesn't [00:04:18] bother me at all. Tracht, the traditional [00:04:21] Bavarian costume, is mandatory at this ball, but you have to get up [00:04:24] very early for that. Who else [00:04:28] gets up at two in the morning to already. "at three drinking [00:04:31] beer, but once you experience it, it's really [00:04:34] great. It's three in the morning and it's time to go, with [00:04:38] a candle in one hand and an instrument in the other, Leonora makes her way [00:04:42] between the beer tables, but how to find friends [00:04:46] among so many people? I found [00:04:48] them. This student is not the only [00:04:52] fan of traditional folk music. She knows most of the attendees [00:04:55] from regular gatherings of folk music lovers in her [00:04:59] area. They gather to play together, and sometimes it lasts all [00:05:03] night. Leonora grew up with folk music. [00:05:06] To someone who didn't grow up with it, it is probably strange, but [00:05:10] to me, it gives me a feeling of home, [00:05:12] friendship and tradition, [00:05:15] Koholbal, because this is part of our heritage, it's [00:05:19] like we are passing the baton. Meanwhile, in [00:05:22] the English Garden, thousands of people gathered, most brought [00:05:26] their own food and candles, but drinks have to be bought, by 4 [00:05:30] in the morning there's almost no free space left, and what do you drink [00:05:33] at 4 in the morning, well of course [00:05:35] beer. [00:05:41] We just came out of the club, that's why we're still [00:05:45] we'll dance, have a good time and [00:05:48] Kohrlbal to the fullest. And traditional clothing [00:05:52] is back in fashion. Parents, grandparents [00:05:56] told me that 30 or 40 years ago almost no one came to [00:06:00] Oktoberfest in traditional costume, but today it's [00:06:03] a real [00:06:04] trend. [00:06:08] The Cocherball is one of Munich's most unusual [00:06:11] traditions. The event dates back to the 19th century when [00:06:14] household servants, cooks and maids gathered to make the most [00:06:18] of their rare free hours. Coherl was the name of the [00:06:21] kitchen staff, while the more elegant world spent Sunday morning [00:06:25] in church, the workers were free to celebrate. By 10 a.m. [00:06:28] they had to return to work. The ball was officially banned [00:06:32] in 1904. Maids here [00:06:35] met officers and gave birth to many illegitimate [00:06:38] children. Because of this, they had trouble finding [00:06:43] work for a long time, out of wedlock, so [00:06:57] the ball was banned due to lack of morality. Dancing at the Chinese Tower was reintroduced in 1989. It's almost 6 a.m., time to [00:07:00] dance. [00:07:02] Leonora can't wait, her dance partner Florian [00:07:06] has just arrived and they go to the [00:07:08] dance floor together. [00:07:14] They dance Waltz, Polka and traditional folk [00:07:17] dances, today around 12 thousand [00:07:20] guests gathered. The next four hours are reserved exclusively [00:07:24] for dancing without [00:07:25] a break. [00:07:29] There is a warm atmosphere and good mood. No one here [00:07:33] will be left out. Everyone is in a great mood. [00:07:36] Munich is a city where as an individual you can really live [00:07:40] well. [00:07:43] "we wanted to drink all night then stop by here, but the coffee is [00:07:47] really good, [00:07:50] not bad, good coffee, [00:07:53] yes, it's already 9:00 in the morning and the first signs of fatigue are becoming [00:07:57] obvious, [00:08:01] I'm a little tired and my feet are starting to [00:08:04] hurt, but I'm enduring, three [00:08:08] hours of continuous dancing, that's a real [00:08:10] workout. [00:08:17] If you really want to experience Bavarian or Munich [00:08:20] culture, come to Hochelbal not to Oktoberfest, [00:08:23] here the true Munich culture is preserved. I would [00:08:27] like more people to think about where this tradition comes from [00:08:31] and how it developed. Maybe then they will understand it better, then simply [00:08:35] enjoy it. Just come and have a nice [00:08:37] time. [00:08:40] At the very end, even the nice summer weather started to give up, but [00:08:44] that cannot spoil the celebration for the Bavarians, most stay [00:08:47] until the end at 10 o'clock in the morning waiting [00:08:50] for the last dance at this year's Munich [00:08:53] Kohelbal. [00:08:57] Next is Bayreuth. Every summer, Wagner fans [00:09:01] from all over the world pilgrimage to this small [00:09:04] Bavarian town. Euromax reporter Lukas [00:09:07] Stege went there to find out why the famous [00:09:11] composer still attracts so much attention, every [00:09:14] summer thousands of people from all over the world come to the small Bavarian [00:09:18] town of Bayreuth, and so it has been for 150 [00:09:21] years, but [00:09:22] why? [00:09:27] Even The New York Times included Bayreuth on its list of [00:09:31] 52 places to visit in [00:09:33] 2026. [00:09:39] And all thanks to him, composer Richard. [00:09:43] a controversial superstar of the 19th century who [00:09:46] founded the Bayreuth festival. [00:09:49] Richard Wagner commissioned the construction of a new colossal opera house [00:09:53] exclusively for the Bayreuth festival. Performances are [00:09:56] held here only during the summer, the repertoire includes [00:09:59] exclusively his works. [00:10:03] Was it vanity, ego or is there something [00:10:06] more behind it all? [00:10:09] Richard Wagner was a rebel and a provocateur. He fundamentally [00:10:13] changed the world of opera, but there are many debates about his person [00:10:17] today, he was an ardent [00:10:18] anti-Semite. [00:10:21] Adolf Hitler, who adored Wagner's music, was a frequent [00:10:25] guest in [00:10:26] Bayreuth. [00:10:29] Even today, Wagner's devotees from all over the world make pilgrimages to [00:10:33] the festival. There is enormous interest in tickets, even though the audience [00:10:36] sits for hours in the un-airconditioned hall on hard [00:10:40] wooden chairs. [00:10:44] Why do people do this voluntarily? Let's find out in a tour [00:10:48] of Bayreuth. Following in the footsteps of Richard [00:10:50] Wagner. It is a peaceful and serene town that [00:10:54] comes alive every year at the end of July, because [00:10:57] it's festival time. [00:11:02] Everything starts with a big parade of celebrities. [00:11:05] German politicians, including former Chancellor [00:11:09] Angela [00:11:12] Merkel, particularly like to come here. [00:11:15] During the five weeks of the festival, about thirty performances are held, [00:11:19] including open-air concerts attended by almost [00:11:22] 60,000 visitors. [00:11:25] Most come from Europe, but many fans also arrive from [00:11:29] the United States and Japan. And that's [00:11:32] it, the ultimate pilgrimage destination for all Wagner [00:11:35] devotees. The Festival House. Wagner's opera [00:11:39] house was relatively simple, but also very [00:11:41] innovative. For example, it does not have opulent boxes because nothing should [00:11:45] distract from what is happening on stage. [00:11:49] The acoustics are outstanding, partly thanks to the large amount of wood [00:11:53] used in the construction. Here. Wagner's monumental work, the Ring [00:11:56] of the Nibelung, which takes us into the world of Germanic-Norse [00:12:00] mythology, where gods and men [00:12:03] fight for the Rhine gold, is often performed. The performance lasts [00:12:06] a total of 16 hours spread over four [00:12:09] days. The world had never seen anything like it before. The first [00:12:13] festival was held in 1876. [00:12:17] The Ring, as Wagner's fans affectionately call it, also [00:12:20] premiered here, but it was a complete failure. [00:12:23] Many viewers were... simply caught off guard and didn't know [00:12:27] what to think, says Martin Scholty. Wagner was left with huge [00:12:30] debts. For 25 years, Martin [00:12:34] has performed every summer as an extra at the Bayreuth [00:12:37] festival. When not on stage, Scholty leads organized [00:12:41] tours of the building for group visits. [00:12:45] If I want to see a performance, how much does a ticket [00:12:48] cost? Tickets with a limited view [00:12:52] of the stage cost 15, and the most expensive ones are around 400 [00:12:55] euros. As you walk through Bayreuth, here and [00:12:59] there you will come across small Wagner statues that mark [00:13:02] Wagner's path and lead you to places connected with the composer's [00:13:06] life. [00:13:09] Wagner's path ends at Villa Wahnfried. This is the house that [00:13:13] Richard Wagner built for himself and his family, but with money [00:13:17] he actually didn't have. He was constantly in debt. [00:13:20] In front of the house is a bust of the Bavarian King Ludwig II [00:13:24] the Great. Wagner's [00:13:25] devotee. [00:13:29] This bust, as if saying, sponsored [00:13:32] by Ludwig. Without the help of King Ludwig, Wagner would not have been able [00:13:35] to finance his first festival, this [00:13:38] villa. [00:13:41] Today, Villa Wahnfried houses the Wagner Museum. The atmosphere of the time [00:13:44] when Richard Wagner and his [00:13:48] wife Cosima often gladly received guests in their [00:13:51] salon can still be felt. [00:13:57] And finally, one piece of advice: every summer on [00:14:00] the large lawn in front of the festival house, two [00:14:03] free open-air concerts are held, all you need to do is [00:14:06] bring a blanket, sit on the grass and enjoy [00:14:09] the music, but can that really replace going to the [00:14:13] theater? [00:14:16] This tour of Bayreuth certainly aroused my [00:14:19] curiosity. Now I understand much better why the Bayreuth [00:14:23] festival fascinates people so much, and what do you think, [00:14:27] is watching a Wagner opera in the festival house really [00:14:30] a once-in-a-lifetime experience? [00:14:32] Ajac the journey [00:14:35] has come a long way from Sudan via [00:14:39] Uganda to Paris, although she never dreamed of becoming [00:14:43] a model, today she belongs to a new generation [00:14:46] of African talents who are changing the face of the fashion [00:14:49] industry. [00:14:51] Paris Fashion Week represents the very top of the fashion [00:14:55] world, only selected designers have the opportunity [00:14:58] to present their handmade unique [00:15:02] creations to international stars, such as American rapper Cardi [00:15:05] B. Sudanese model Ajagdier is in the spotlight, this [00:15:09] 24-year-old [00:15:12] is walking the show for Indian designer Rahul Mishra and [00:15:15] is trying to remain completely calm, just don't fall. [00:15:19] Be calm, enjoy [00:15:22] the runway, this is your moment, I'm thinking [00:15:25] about something else entirely, I don't want to look at the audience, I don't want [00:15:29] to be stressed or nervous, I'm thinking [00:15:32] about facial expressions, looks nice, don't look [00:15:36] repulsive. Be smiling, and Jack [00:15:40] Dew has so far participated in more than a hundred fashion shows, [00:15:44] appeared on the covers of numerous [00:15:46] magazines, the last of which was the July [00:15:49] cover of Portuguese Vogue for [00:15:52] 2026. This made someone [00:15:55] extremely proud. My grandmother [00:15:58] was overjoyed, she said, "My God, you're in [00:16:02] Paris? Every time I appear in a magazine, [00:16:05] I show it to my grandmother and say, "I'm on the cover," then [00:16:09] I see how proud she is. Ajac Dew [00:16:12] was born in Khartoum, the capital of Sudan, when she was [00:16:15] nine years old, her family moved to Uganda, where three [00:16:19] years later she was spotted by a talent scout. [00:16:23] However, modeling was never her dream. I was with [00:16:26] a friend at the mall, a man approached me and [00:16:30] asked, "Do you want to be a model?" I said, [00:16:33] no, I was still a child, and he said, "You [00:16:37] could try," and so I tried, [00:16:40] it worked and now I'm here in Paris, [00:16:43] sipping coffee, Ajac moved to Paris in the fall [00:16:47] of 2025. Modeling completely [00:16:50] changed her life, I really don't know how to [00:16:54] explain it, but it's very difficult, you never know what you're [00:16:58] going to do tomorrow, I don't know what I'm going to do tomorrow, neither does [00:17:02] my agency, everything is resolved at the last [00:17:04] minute, models like Azhak. who come from [00:17:08] Sudan or South Sudan, today have a very [00:17:11] prominent place on world fashion runways, as many as nine out of 50 [00:17:15] currently most successful models have roots in [00:17:18] that region. People from Sudan, Ethiopia, that part of the world have [00:17:22] a physique that makes clothes particularly impressive. I think [00:17:26] there has never been more diversity on the runways. Some [00:17:29] designers who previously hired exclusively European, i.e., [00:17:33] white models, for which they were criticized on social [00:17:37] media, now pay close attention not to repeat that mistake. Ten [00:17:40] years ago, at a Prada show, you could only see white [00:17:43] models, today it's no longer like that. [00:17:47] It seems that we are only now discovering the beauty of African [00:17:50] women, but they have always been beautiful and they have always been there, however, [00:17:54] agencies did not represent them for a long time, they rejected them only because of their skin [00:17:57] color, today that has changed. [00:18:01] Supermodel Anuki, originally from South Sudan, [00:18:05] was named Model of the Year for 2022. [00:18:08] She is considered a pioneer who opened the doors of the fashion [00:18:12] world to black models. [00:18:15] The person who has influenced me the most recently [00:18:18] is certainly Anokia, I think that many after [00:18:22] her success started hiring more such [00:18:25] models. When I was little, I wished [00:18:29] I saw more models like her in commercials and on television [00:18:32] so I could identify with [00:18:35] them. I'm glad that it... And [00:18:38] Ajax is grateful for everything she has [00:18:41] achieved. [00:18:44] It's a great privilege to be here, to travel to different [00:18:47] countries, to do things that I would never be able to do [00:18:50] at home, it really is. [00:18:54] And Jacques sees her future in Africa and in [00:18:57] Europe. In 10 years, I don't [00:19:00] know, I'll live here and there. I'll somehow [00:19:04] manage it. My whole family lives in Uganda. [00:19:07] I miss them terribly, just a few minutes ago I was texting [00:19:11] with them. She still dreams that one day she will walk the show for one of [00:19:15] the most famous fashion houses in Paris. Balenciaga is [00:19:19] my dream. I love Balenciaga, maybe one [00:19:22] day. Yes. At High Fashion Week in July [00:19:26] 2026. Anokia opened the show [00:19:29] for Balenciaga fashion house, presenting the first collection [00:19:33] of its new creative director. Pierre Paolo [00:19:36] Piccioli, and then she also closed it, wearing [00:19:40] a traditional wedding dress. Maybe she is not [00:19:43] so far from realizing her dream, but before that she goes on a [00:19:47] well-deserved vacation. [00:19:49] In the new series, we present young [00:19:52] believers of different faiths from all over [00:19:55] Europe. Today we will meet a young [00:19:58] Protestant from the Netherlands. Josephine [00:20:01] Pell will show us why faith still occupies an important place in [00:20:05] her daily life. [00:20:08] For me, Jesus is someone who [00:20:11] is always with you, no matter where you are, he [00:20:15] lives in your heart, he is there in difficult times, but also in [00:20:18] beautiful ones. Josephine Pell is 22 years old, and [00:20:22] today she will show us what it means for her to be a dedicated [00:20:26] Protestant. In her homeland, the Netherlands, [00:20:30] she belongs to a minority because only every third person her [00:20:33] age identifies as a member of a [00:20:36] religious community. I sometimes felt [00:20:39] very lonely in my faith, because there weren't [00:20:43] many religious young people at school. I went to a [00:20:46] Christian elementary school and a Christian high school, but [00:20:50] I was still the only true [00:20:51] believer. [00:20:55] Josephine studies pedagogy in her native Utrecht. Every [00:20:58] Sunday morning, while many of her peers are still [00:21:01] sleeping, she goes to mass. [00:21:16] A Protestant mass has a fixed order which includes [00:21:20] hymns, prayers and a sermon, everyone is [00:21:23] welcome as they are, there is no special dress [00:21:26] code or other [00:21:28] rules. [00:21:31] There are no opulent symbols and images common in Catholic [00:21:34] churches. The interior of the temple is simple and [00:21:38] modest. Protestantism is one of the branches of [00:21:41] Christianity. I believe in Jesus, we believe that he died on [00:21:44] the cross for our sins, that he is the Son [00:21:47] of God. [00:21:50] The home looks just like the home of any other Dutch [00:21:53] student, there are no crucifixes or other religious [00:21:56] symbols on the wall. However, faith has been a part of her life since [00:22:00] childhood. [00:22:04] These are photos from my baptism. My parents decided [00:22:08] to baptize me when I was still a child. By doing so, [00:22:11] they actually conveyed that "we commit our child to [00:22:14] God." Later I started thinking about who God is to me, [00:22:18] who Jesus is. Then I consciously decided to dedicate [00:22:22] my life to [00:22:23] Jesus. [00:22:27] Protestantism originated during the Reformation in the 16th [00:22:30] century. This movement for the renewal of Christianity criticized [00:22:34] certain teachings and practices of the Catholic Church. And [00:22:38] today there are great differences. In Protestant [00:22:41] churches, women can be ordained as priests, and [00:22:45] celibacy is not required of the clergy. Less than [00:22:48] a hundred years ago, Protestants made up [00:22:51] 44 percent of the population of the Netherlands, [00:22:55] today they are only 13%. A few [00:22:58] years ago, Joseph joined a Christian [00:23:01] student association where she studies the most important [00:23:04] foundation of Protestantism, and Christianity in general, [00:23:08] the Bible. [00:23:13] Members gather in small groups, together they read passages [00:23:17] from the Bible and discuss their meaning. In the [00:23:20] end, it all comes down to good and evil, to what it means [00:23:24] to live meaningfully and what happens after death, these [00:23:28] are important questions that in my opinion trouble every [00:23:31] person. Although the Bible was written more than a thousand [00:23:34] years ago, the world has changed a lot since then, I think people [00:23:38] are still looking for answers hope and meaning. For Josephine [00:23:42] music is an important part of faith, as well as Protestantism [00:23:45] in general. Martin Luther, one of the founders of Protestantism [00:23:49] in the 16th century, loved to sing and composed [00:23:52] hymns, he knew that music has the power to directly [00:23:56] touch a person's soul, when I sing or [00:23:59] play, either alone or with others, I feel that [00:24:03] kind of connection that one finds in [00:24:05] prayer, I think music is a beautiful way to [00:24:09] connect with God, but of course faith is not just about [00:24:13] life here now, but about answers to [00:24:16] life's greatest questions, I don't know [00:24:19] exactly... what comes after death, but I believe that [00:24:22] something exists, I believe that life is not just this on [00:24:26] Earth, that we are not born just to live, [00:24:29] die and that's it. I believe there is something after [00:24:33] that, an eternity where everything is much better than here on [00:24:36] Earth. And if it's not like that, that's fine. [00:24:40] Wedding cakes have come [00:24:45] a long way, from simple cakes to spectacular [00:24:49] creations that cost several thousand euros, [00:24:52] let's see how this sweet tradition has taken such [00:24:56] an important place at weddings. For many, [00:24:58] a wedding without a wedding cake is as unthinkable [00:25:01] as a wedding without guests, so how is the perfect [00:25:05] wedding cake made, how does it become [00:25:08] a true work of art how much does such a cake [00:25:12] actually cost. We are in Altrincham, in the [00:25:15] northwest of England. [00:25:18] Today we are going to make a cake. [00:25:28] Preparing a wedding cake is not a job [00:25:31] that is finished in one day. Making a wedding [00:25:34] cake takes three days: on the first day we bake the layers, [00:25:38] the next day we fill them and spread them with our [00:25:41] ganache. And then we leave the cake overnight to set so that it is strong [00:25:44] enough for fondant, today [00:25:48] we are making a rather special cake, it's a [00:25:52] vegan cake, we don't make vegan [00:25:55] wedding cakes very often. I heated up the fondant, [00:25:59] which I colored a soft ivory, but just [00:26:02] a little, maybe we should first see how it all started. [00:26:05] The tradition of the wedding cake dates back to ancient Rome, [00:26:09] where a wheat or barley cake was broken over [00:26:13] the bride to bring her fertility and happiness. In [00:26:16] medieval England, the custom evolved into a pile [00:26:19] of sweet buns over which the newlyweds would kiss for luck. [00:26:22] In the 17th century, the savory bridal pie became popular, [00:26:26] which was later replaced by a currant cake, [00:26:30] in the Victorian era, thanks to the production of refined [00:26:34] sugar, white icing appeared as a symbol [00:26:38] of purity and wealth, it gained particular popularity after [00:26:41] the wedding of Queen Victoria. Today, a typical [00:26:44] British wedding cake is a multi-tiered sponge cake [00:26:47] covered with icing. Susan smooths the fondant [00:26:51] to give the cake a more contemporary look. Then [00:26:54] she levels the tiers and places support rods that [00:26:58] stabilize the construction. [00:27:01] It's time for decoration. Susan adds a luxurious blue [00:27:05] ribbon, made of royal icing. Now [00:27:08] I am using a piping bag with royal icing, but made with [00:27:12] aquafaba instead of egg whites, because it is a [00:27:15] vegan cake. With a small nozzle I draw a string [00:27:18] of pearls that serves as a decorative border for the design. After [00:27:22] that, Susan hand-paints the cake. [00:27:25] For all these years that I have been making cakes, especially wedding cakes, [00:27:27] I have seen how trends constantly [00:27:35] change, but I have remained faithful to the art of cake decorating, [00:27:39] because I really love it, I [00:27:43] enjoy it, with royal icing you can [00:27:46] do amazing things, how much do such [00:27:49] opulent cakes cost then, [00:27:52] a three-tiered cake with us usually costs around 800 [00:27:56] pounds, this six-tiered... cake, [00:28:00] decorated with a large number of sugar flowers, [00:28:03] would cost around 4,500 [00:28:06] pounds, it really requires a lot of [00:28:09] work. labor, besides that, it [00:28:13] is very large, it is enough for at least 500 [00:28:16] guests, [00:28:21] that's it, the cake is [00:28:22] ready, [00:28:25] on this sweet note we reach the very end of the show, for more [00:28:29] interesting stories from the world of European lifestyle. and [00:28:32] culture, follow us on social networks, thank you for being with [00:28:36] us and see you next time, [00:28:52] AI changes the rules of the game or has it already changed them?
