Oktoberfest is the world’s largest folk festival, held annually in Munich, Germany. It began in 1810 as a royal wedding celebration for Crown Prince Ludwig and Princess Therese. The event was so popular that it became an annual tradition. Initially focused on horse racing, it evolved into a celebration of Bavarian culture, featuring beer, traditional foods, and music.
Over the years, the festival has expanded, with numerous beer tents hosted by local breweries. Today, it attracts over 6 million visitors from around the globe each year. Oktoberfest showcases Bavarian customs, including traditional attire like lederhosen and dirndls. The festival typically runs from late September to the first weekend in October.
