What is Oktoberfest?
The Oktoberfest was born in 1810, in what is now the German state of Bavaria, as a way of celebrating the marriage of the Bavarian king Ludwig I. Over time, it has become one of Germany’s main festivals and the largest beer festival in the world.
The first São Paulo Oktoberfest was held in 2017, and since then it has attracted more and more visitors with its intense program and typical German attractions. The festival celebrates the country’s culture with Brazilian enthusiasm, offering dance performances, live music, typical dishes and a special selection of beers.
