[@PeacefullyHappySoul]

Beers in a Munchen beer garten is absolutely a must for anyone who is cool. Prost.

[@MartinIvanov]

The worlds biggest party!? Apperantly it's called like that by people who haven't been to the San Fermin Fiesta in Pamplona,Spain.

[@Miximixos]

The Oktoberfest in Munich have a very long tradition. Since 185 years munich citizens celebrate "D´ Wiesn", the most common munich word for this beer fest. There is a huge unbuilt area in the middle of Munich which called "Theresienwiese". This is the base ground. More than 5 Million visitors in 16 days. I think, you can´t compare this events.

[@MartinIvanov]

I do admit it can qualify for the biggest oldest ;) but San Fermin scale is crazy the entire town is a party zone no limits 24/7

[@Miximixos]

The important thing is... people have fun! :) Greetings from Munich! :)

[@mgithaiga1]

Happy Oktoberfest Germany!

[@djmacross]

The world’s biggest party? Clearly the host has never experienced the carnival in Rio de Janeiro.

[@hildegunstvonmythenmetz6619]

Well the number of visitors are similar at both events.

[@denaliwarnakula7684]

Why so many people come here every year again and again!

Lukas Stege good night yes Tradition and beer: the Oktoberfest l DW English good night wonderful Munich Germany yes .U.S.A.

[@RFM-]

So Germans do not get offended when other cultures dress in their traditional clothing; however, if a german dressed in a trational native head dress or something else that is cultural appropriation.. Hmmmmmm.

[@ave.christus.rex.]

No we dont hate this clothing we just hate the fact that everyone think we wear this everyday. Just bavarians wear this and the rest of Germany has other traditions

[@Marco-bf4uu]

What are you talking that isnt true. But we dont like the stereotype that we dress like that. Those are bavarian clothes rest of germany has different traditional wear. In germany theres no tradition it self. Every region or state has different own traditions

[@arthurgiorgo114]
