Oktoberfest ex Wiki
The Munich Oktoberfest originally took place during the sixteen days up to,
and including, the first Sunday in October. In 1994, the schedule was modified
in response to
German reunification so that if the first Sunday in October falls on the 1st
or 2nd, then the festival would go on until October 3 (German
Unity Day). Thus, the festival is now 17 days when the first Sunday is
October 2 and 18 days when it is October 1. In 2010, the festival lasted until
the first Monday in October, to mark the 200th anniversary of the event. The
festival is held in an area named the
Theresienwiese (field, or meadow, of Therese), often called Wiesn
for short, located near Munich's center. Large quantities of
Oktoberfest Beer are consumed, with almost 7 million liters served during
the 16 day festival in 2007. Visitors may also enjoy a wide variety of
traditional food such as
Hendl (chicken),
Schweinebraten (roast
pork),
Schweinshaxe (grilled
ham hock),
Steckerlfisch (grilled fish on a stick), Würstl (sausages)
along with Brezeln (Pretzel),
Knödel (potato or bread dumplings),
Käsespätzle (cheese noodles), Reiberdatschi (potato
pancakes),
Sauerkraut
or Rotkohl/Blaukraut (red
cabbage) along with such Bavarian delicacies as
Obatzda (a
spiced cheese-butter spread) and
Weisswurst
(a white sausage).
QUOTE
Oktoberfest is a 16-day festival celebrating
beer held annually
in Munich,
Bavaria,
Germany,
running from late September to the first weekend in October. It is one of the
most famous events in Germany and is the world's largest
fair, with more
than 6 million people from around the world attending the event every year to
descend on the beer tents of Munich to celebrate the 16-day Oktoberfest
extravaganza.[1]
To the locals, it is not called Oktoberfest, but "die Wiesn" - after the
colloquial name of the fairgrounds themselves. The Oktoberfest is an important
part of Bavarian
culture, having been held since 1810. Other cities across the world also hold
Oktoberfest celebrations, modeled after the original Munich event.
