Between 28 June and 1 July 2018, the best German Aufguss masters will compete at the official German Aufguss Championships in Badergarten Eibenstock.
The Aufguss masters develop a choreography on a topic of their own choice and use music, costume dress, aromas and light effects in order to narrate their story.
A total of 50 Aufguss masters will compete in single and team events. Last year’s championships saw a show about the musician Falco, as well as a story about an ugly duckling.
The sauna infusions presented at the championships drew 5,000 sauna guests last year, and that event's organisers, the Obermain Thermal Spa in Bad Staffelstein, saw an 80 per cent increase in sauna guests during the championships.
The top three German Aufguss champions will go on to the Aufguss World Championships, which take place 17-23 September 2018 at the SATAM Saunapark in Wendisch Reitz.
