The most interesting event in Germany will probably be the Munich one, because it is happening at the original, unrenovated 1972 Trader Vic's, the best preserved Vic's site in Europe:

But be warned that the Munich event coincides with that big Bavarian Luau also known as the Oktoberfest, and all hotels in town are booked up! So if you are coming from outside of town, better arrange to shack up at a friend's place, or not at all.

Tiki carvings, art, and other Tiki treasures by the incredibly talented guys from Forbidden Island will be availble at the Munich and Swiss events, too: http://www.forbidden-paradise.com/eng/gallery.php

The above event poster by Dr. Alderete and other goodies should also be for sale. :)
