Oktoberfest 2012 - Munich, Germany

Oktoberfest Beer Festival 2012, Munich, Germany. 20th Sept - 7th Oct 2012.

The world's BIGGEST beer festival from only 50€ per night per person!

Oktoberfest is a 16 to 18 day beer festival held in the city of Munich, which is located in the Bavaria region of Germany. It runs from late in September to the first weekend in October, hence the name Oktoberfest. Being one of the most famous events in Germany, it is also the world’s largest beer festival, with over 5 million people visiting it each year. Such is the size of Oktoberfest, that many other cities in other countries also hold Oktoberfest Beer Festivals, named and based on the Munich Oktoberfest. In 2012, our trip is happening between the 20th September and the 7th October, and you can join us from two nights, or if you are man enough, the duration.

A bit of history: The beer festival usually takes place on the sixteen days up to and including the first Sunday in October. If the first Sunday falls on the 1st or 2nd of October, then the festival will go on until the 3rd, which is German Unity Day. Hence the beer festival can be 17 days long if the first Sunday is on the 2nd, or 18 days long if the first Sunday falls on the 1st. The festival is held in an area of Munich called Theresienwiese, meaning the field, and is located close to Munich city centre.

Visitors can also soak up the beer with many different (and large amounts) types of German cuisine, such as chicken, pork roast, grilled ham, german sausages, pretzel, bread and potato dumplings, cheese noodles, potato pancakes and red cabbage.
