Wine lovers should coincide a visit with the gigantic wine festival at the end of August, when regional specialities like Maultaschen - meat and spinach pasties - are washed down with a glass of local Schillerwein.
A month later, the city is rocked again by the Cannstatter Volksfest - an equal to the Munich beer festival - where you can enjoy raucous song, dance and more than a little of the brown stuff.
