01 Sep 2010 - 31 Oct 2010 Date to be confirmed  

Berlin's version of the Oktoberfest is, like its more famous counterpart in Munich, very much to do with beer, with a supporting role played by brass bands and men in leather shorts. Although a very much smaller affair, the Berlin Oktoberfest attracts 150,000 to 200,000 visitors each year. The annual Oktoberfest is a great opportunity to try a wide variety of German beers as well as guest beers from across Europe.

Times
