The Thursday before Ash Wednesday, which this year is Thursday 19th February, is known as "Weiberfastnacht," or "Women's carnival night."

The women are also allowed to kiss any man they like.

Make sure you check out the Viktualienmarkt webcam next Tuesday so you can see all the festivities in downtown Munich!
