A Day at Oktoberfest

The outfits at Oktoberfest are as exciting as the fairground rides and stands; marvel at the world's largest beer festival. We suggest the Teufelsrad ("Devil's Wheel") fairground ride and Schichtl's Original Magical Variety Show. Enjoy Bavarian specialities such as the "Halbes Hendl" fried chicken or drink a litre or "Mass", of beer during a trip to the Oktoberfest.
