The Frankfurt, Heidelberg, and Wiesbaden-Mainz Chapters have come together for a star-spangled 4th of July celebration! 

It’s a great opportunity to meet other Americans. Feel free to bring along any Americans or friends who would be interested in seeing what July 4th is all about (minus the fireworks of course).

🎉 We’ll celebrate in true American style and look forward to seeing you there!

We're providing the meat (hot dogs, bratwurst, ribs, hamburgers, and vegan "meats"), American hot and hamburger buns, soft drinks and water, ice, real glasses, plates, and silverware.

🍺 Beer, 🍷 Wine, and 🍹cocktails will be available are extra.

👕 Democrats Abroad merchandise will also be available.

🗳️ If you need help getting registered to vote, you can get help with that during the event.

What to bring: Please bring a side dish or a dessert. 🍉 Use the sign-up sheet so we don't get too many of the same types of foods.  You can find the sign-up sheet here.

🏐 Bring your games!
