A highlight of Chinesischer Turm is the ''Kocherlball'', which is always held on the 3rd Sunday in July (if the weather is bad a week later). The Kocherlball is held in memory of the servants of the noble families of the 19th century. In the late 19th century, up to 5,000 Munich servants met during the summer months every Saturday morning for a dance at the Chinese Tower. Usually they met before work between 4am and 5am. Today the Kocherlball takes place on the 3rd Sunday in July (if the weather is bad a week later) from 5.30am to 10am. The ball attracts thousands of participants of which many wear historical outfits and Bavarian costumes.
Before or after a cool Maß guests can enjoy a coach ride through the park, starting directly at the entrance of the beer garden. Since over 40 years 1945 [http://www.kutschen-muenchen.de Kutscherei Hans Holzmann] offers tours in traditional carriages.
