The Oktoberfest tradition started in 1810 to celebrate the October 12th marriage of Bavarian Crown Prince Ludwig to the Saxon Hildburghausen Princess Therese . The citizens of Munich were invited to join in the festivities which were held over five days on the fields in front of the city gates. The main event of the original Oktoberfest was a horse race.

Anniversary celebrations became larger and more elaborate. An agricultural show was added during the second year. In 1818, a carousel and two swings were set up for the revellers. Such amusements were few in the first decades of the festival, but party-goers were amply entertained by the tree climbing competitions, wheel barrow and sack races, mush eating contests, barrel rolling races, and goose chases. By 1870s, mechanical rides were an expanding feature of the festival and in 1908, the festival boasted Germany's first roller coaster. When the city began allowing beer on the fairgrounds, makeshift beer stands began cropping up, and their number increased steadily until they were eventually replaced by beer halls in 1896. The beer halls, like the beer tents of today , were sponsored by the local breweries. The festival was eventually prolonged and moved ahead to September to allow for better weather conditions.

Oktoberfest is the world's largest beer festival, and is held annually in Munich, Germany. The 16-day party attracts over 6 million people every year who consume 1.5 million gallons of beer, 200,000 pairs of pork sausage, and 480,000 spit-roasted chickens during the two-week extravaganza. Visitors come from all over the world to eat, drink, and muse at traditional “Lederhosen” and “Dirndls.” Oktoberfest is one of Munich's largest and most profitable tourist attractions. Many festivals worldwide model their own Oktoberfest celebrations after Munich’s, including Ober Gatlinburg.

Oktoberfest Beer is a variety called “Marzen.” Darker and stronger than traditional beer, Marzen contains up to 6% alcohol, is bottom-fermented, and is lagered for at least 30 days. Before the advent of modern refrigeration techniques, this type of beer was brewed in March (as its name suggests) and allowed to age through the summer, so that it was ready to drink by late summer or early fall. Like all German beer, the Oktoberfest beer is brewed according to strict German standards (called the “Reinh eitsgebot” and in effect since 1516) that precisely define the four ingredients allowed in the brewing of beer: barley, hops, malt, and yeast. Just 6 Munich breweries - Augustiner, Hacker-Pschorr, Hofbrau, Lowenbrau, Paulaner, and Spaten - are permitted to serve beer at the festival. Fourteen larger and several smaller beer tents and beer gardens provide enough seating for 98,000 visitors at a time. Beer is served by the Maß, a one-liter mug, and costs about 8 euros . Beer maids and waiters must be able to carry 10 of these beer-filled mugs at a time. Learn German “Bitte kommen Sie wieder” Habt Ihr Spaß? Please come again! Are we having fun yet?
