Stade celebrates the Hanseatic League in the middle of the historic town centre: at the heart of the event is the ‘Stade Hanseatic Banquet’ organised by the brotherhoods . A Labskaus meal for everyone: At benches and tables set up around the waterfront at the old Hanseatic harbour, members of the brotherhoods serve traditional sailors' dish. Music: „Stader Hafensänger“.
