The real Oktoberfest in Munich is celebrated a month earlier thanks to the cold weather. You can read all about the original Oktoberfest in my post about the best September festivals, or in my post about the year I went to Oktoberfest in Munich.

This big event is 16 days of beer and nothing but beer in the heart of Munich. Since 1810, travelers have traveled to Germany to celebrate the stomach-warming drink. Apart from drinks, this festival will treat you with traditional and local dances, rich food and a very friendly atmosphere.
