The German-American Social Club of Cape Coral was founded as a non-political organization in July 1964 with a charter membership of 34. The purpose of the Club, then and now, is to promote good fellowship with a variety of social activities, to perpetuate traditional German festivals such as Oktoberfest, Karneval, Costume Balls, Folk Dances, etc., and to stimulate interest in the German language and customs.
Every year in October, the club organizes Munich in Cape Coral. The Cape Coral Oktoberfest is the largest party of the year in the community! It is THE event for fun, good food, freshly poured domestic and German beer, live music on several stages, laughter, dancing – with or without the chicken hat -simply put – it’s that famous German Gemütlichkeit.
Check out our webpage to see our upcoming events. We have everything from Gartenfests outside, to formal and masquerade balls inside. There is always something happening at the GASC! Non-members are also encouraged to join us for dinner and dancing every Friday night. You might even considering joining us as a new member!
Welcome to the website for the German-American Social Club of Cape Coral! We encourage you to visit us in person, and see why our community has voted us Best Social Club five years in a row. We offer dinner, dancing and live music every Friday night, and themed dances throughout the year. There’s a small entrance fee, and very reasonable prices for food and drinks. You don’t have to be German to be a member of our Club, just be interested in our culture! Come join us, and see what Gemütlichkeit is all about!
