"Anwesenheit ist Pflicht" Ich weiß, das bedeutet, dass man unbedingt erscheinen muss. Aber ich frage legal. Wenn mein Vertrag nicht vorsieht, dass ich zu besagten Veranstaltungen erscheinen muss, kann ich dann wegen Nichterscheinens entlassen werden? Angenommen, ich wäre gefeuert. Wäre das für einen Anwalt ein einfacher Sieg?

Legally speaking [they can’t be mandatory](https://topeins.dguv.de/recht/zwang-zum-betriebsfest-fuer-arbeitnehmende/). But if they happen during working hours you are required to either attend or actually work.
Lol. Fun is mandatory, you’re obligated to party.
Even if it isn’t legal I would suggest going and socializing. It’s about the mindset that you are a team player. Germany takes that very seriously in my experience. If you want to stay long term in the company and grow, socializing and creating a connection is important. Especially if your job needs you to collaborate very often. Having friends as colleagues is always better, it will make your work life way more bearable.
As an introvert this was very difficult for me but I made good friends and the bosses also got to know my more personal side which made them happy.
Did the Works Council approve this? That seems to fall right into their core area of responsibilities (organisation of work time).
Talk to your boss. Give him a good reason why you cannot attend.
Either he convinces you because it’s a great event with lots of great food, or he doesn’t.
They cannot force you to attend, but it is good to attend.
They will not fire you over this, but on the other hand: People who show up at such events get easier recognition for promotions.
