What else could we be talking about besides the annual Oktoberfest, held in Munich, Germany!?

I think the best part of attending Oktoberfest in Germany would be the authentic food!
I totally agree! Wish we could send some good pretzels and hendle but, you know…those pesky customs rules!
Can I enter from the Czech Republic? Shipping is much cheaper there than to the U.S…. just saying 🙂
Cynthia, where do you live? Maybe next time we are in the neighborhood, I could bring it to you if you win! Send me an Email [email protected]
The best part of going to Oktoberfest is experiencing the culture! Although I have been to Oktoberfest in the past, we just went to the rides and walked around. Visiting a tent with all of the entertainment would be amazing!
How did you skip on the tents!? They are so much fun! Maybe one day in the future….
I love the fall and all the festivals! My favorite part would be trying different foods! I also would like the crafts to buy.
The best thing would be the customs and food.
Fascinating prize! Would be so happy to win this! 🙂
The best part of going to Oktoberfest in Germany would be the opportunity to visit Germany. I have never been there and have always wanted to visit.
I agree! While Oktoberbest is a fun time, there is SO much more to Germany than beer festivals!
Love to see the country of our heritage.
I have been to Germany and the food was great. Loved the bakery….
The best part would be the food and the beer!
Winning this prize would be vunderbar!! 🙂
The best part of Oktoberfest? The giant pretzels followed by people watching (how many different dirndls!) Seriously…….
Would love to be in Germany for the fest but this is still closer than I was!
The festivities, food and drinks (beer, of course!) would be the best!
I think the best part would be seeing all of the beautiful costumes and learning about their customs.
The Trachten (Dirndles and Liederhosen) are so beautiful!
What do you think would be the best part about going to Oktoberfest in Germany? Tasting the authentic foods and drink
I would enjoy the food and the music and the drinks
Wish I could be at Oktoberfest! Thanks for taking us there through your blog!
I love the fall festivals everywhere!
Best thing about Oktoberfest is meeting friends from across the world and making new friends from around the world!
It is the perfect time to meet up…of you can find them in the sea of people! 😉
The very best part of Oktoberfest would be to people watch, while, of course, indulging in the local foods and beverages!
I agree! There are some ODD characters at Oktoberfest that make it quite interesting to just sit back and watch!
The best part for me, would be to see and learn about my heritage. I am German, but have never been there, but I long to.
It is pretty cool being in the land where you know your ancestors once lived! Hopefully one day you can make it!
What a good idea, I hope we get to attend Oktoberfest soon!
all the yummy food and beer
Best part of Oktoberfest is eating all the delicious foods!
The best part about going to Oktoberfest in Germany is the beer!
Nice! The best part for me is the FOOD!
grat site
great contest
The beer obviously! I love Duvel beer so that would be the best part for sure!
Andy LOVES Belgian beer (maybe even more than German beer…shhh!)but you still can’t go wrong w/ the German classics!
Besides the beer, it’s a beautiful place to be any time of year and I imagine it’s even better now.
Thanks for the chance to win!
I think the fun and food would be the best parts.
The best part about going to the Oktoberfest would be seeing all the people wearing Trachten – when I was there in 1982, it wasn’t that much of a big style, but it’s now super hip to be in your Dirndl and Lederhosen.
The food!!
The best thing about Oktoberfest is the food, beer and the culture!
The best part is getting dressed up in pretty dirndls 🙂
I just got back from Oktoberfest yesterday and had to (sadly) skip on the dirndle…3 months pregnant= hard enough to fit ONE person into that dress, let alone TWO! Can’t wait to have it back on for fest season in the spring!
My favorite part of attending Oktoberfest is probably just enjoying the atmosphere with family and friends. Plus the amazing food. 🙂
I was at Octoberfest in 1989 and the best part was wearing more beer than I drank and the rotisserie chicken was amazing.
