Oktoberfest is a 16-18 day festival held each year 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 the world's largest fair, with more than 5 million people attending every year. The Oktoberfest is an important part of Bavarian culture. Other cities across the world also hold Oktoberfest celebrations, modeled after the Munich event.
Well, thats the Oktoberfest in Germany ...
I got to experience the Beerfest on Fort Bliss in El Paso. The German Airforce is stationed over here as well and they have been sponsoring the fest since a long time now. With real german beer and lots of traditional dances and customs - I almost felt like being home. We had a lot of fun with our new friends and did enjoy a wonderful night.
