German festivals
Munich beer events
German festivals are public celebrations in Germany, typically featuring beer, traditional food, music, and regional customs.
Oktoberfest in Munich is the most famous, drawing millions for beer halls and Bavarian dress.
Other notable festivals include Christmas markets, Carnival (especially in Cologne and Mainz), and wine festivals along the Rhine and Mosel.
We planned our trip around German festival season.
