OKTOBERFESTBEGINNERS’ GUIDE

ONCE UPON A TIME...

Oktoberfest began in Munich in 1810 as a celebration of Crown Prince Ludwig’s marriage to Princess Therese. To celebrate, they invited the

city's residents to a festival in front of the city gates; the event was such a success they decided to bring it back the following year. Oktoberfest

is now an annual event all around the globe, with Oktoberfest UK already in its second year in Bristol.
