My favorite celebración is Oktoberfest.
Oktoberfest is the most popular festival in Germany and one of the most important in te world, being imitated in destinations as diverse as Brazil, Argentina, Chile and Venezuela. This festival has been celebrated in Munich since 1810.
This year the festival begins on September 16 and ends on October 3.
Oktoberfest is a festival that transports us to Bavaras, its culture, its lederhosen and dirndl, polka music and of course, its delicious and foamy beer.
Local often wear traditional costumes called Tracht´n: woman wear colorful dressed (Dirndl); and men leather pants (Lederhosen) and hats.
All beer served at Oktoberfest comes from famous Munich breweries such as Paulaner and Augustiner. There is fantastic local food at Oktoberfest and you should try all the delicacies you can. You can start with the tradicionalWiesn-Hendl (roasted chicken) and some Brezn (a giant pretzel). Admission to Oktoberfest and the tents is free, except for the Oide Wies'n, the historic part of the Oktoberfest that takes you back in time with traditional beer, food and attractions.
It is important not to get drunk. this can be tricky, since there is beer everywhere, but it is always good to know your limits, for your own safety and the safety of others.
