Oktoberfest is a celebration of Bavarian beer from Munich’s finest breweries. Each year, around 6 million litres of beer are consumed along with approximately 300,000 pork sausages, 600,000 roast chickens and 80 roast oxen. Only beer from Munich’s six select breweries is sold in the 14 large tents, served by beer maids carrying armfuls at a time. Aside from beer, there are traditional German amusements, folk costumes, traditional music, marching bands, fairground rides, and parades, to name but a few.
