Oktoberfest and Christmas Markets

Discover more of Oktoberfest and Christmas Markets

Germany is known widely for its Oktoberfest event and its fabulous and extraordinary Christmas Markets! Oktoberfest is an annual event hosted in Munich throughout September into October that pulls in people from all over the world to sample the infamous Bavarian beer! German holidays enjoying Oktoberfest is not just about the beer though – surrounding the beer tents is a massive fairground with many rides and carnival games to challenge your friends and family at! Though not mandatory, visitors love to dress up in traditional Bavarian costumes, the Dirndl or Lederhosen! Oktoberfest is a celebration of massive proportions with a fabulous opportunity to sample local food, drink and take part in all the festivities. German Christmas Markets, while a different experience, are equally as amazing and crowd-drawing. Dresden Christmas Market is the oldest and known to be one of Germany’s best – the market has a charming atmosphere, a huge Christmas carousel, and the world’s biggest nutcracker! Nuremberg Christmas Market is a world-famous Christmas Market for good reason; the charming architecture, wooden market stalls and winter fairy-tale vibe is amazing enough to put anyone in the Christmas spirit! You’ll not want to miss the traditional foods including Nuremberg’s spicy gingerbread, the delicious Nuremberg Bratwursts, and all sorts of freshly baked goods! Berlin also hosts more than 70 Christmas Markets throughout the festive period that include idyllic traditional stalls perfect for purchasing your Christmas gifts - a unique market in Berlin is Christmasrodeo: A Design Christmas Market teeming with fashion, jewellery, quirky works of art, and delicious street food.
