Autumn is traditionally a time for fun and festivities in many cultures.In Germany, for almost two centuries the citizens of Bavaria have had Oktoberfest, a festival for eating, drinking, wearing costumes and enjoying the season.
The first Oktoberfest began in 1810 when Crown Prince Ludwig of Bavaria married Princess Therese of Sachsen-Hildburghausen.The Prince organized a five-day festival to commemorate the event.Today the festival lasts almost 18 days and starts in September when the weather is best.It always takes place in Munich, the capital of Bavaria.
Oktoberfest has many festivities, but it is most famous for food.Food is a central part of the celebration.Bavarian food is unique and includes specialties like sausage, hendl (chicken) , kasespatzle (cheese noodles) , sauerkraut (fermented cabbage) and oxtails.The crowds eat an amazing amount of food during Oktoberfest.Almost 220, 000 pairs of sausages, 460.000 chickens and 88 oxen are eaten every year.The breweries also sell 30 percent of their yearly beer production.
There is a lot more to do than just eat and drink, however, and people of all ages take part in the festivities.The costume parade is an important part of the celebration.It is led by the Munich child, a child dressed in a long black coat with a pointed hood.This symbol is on the Munich coat of arms.Behind the Munich child, a crowd of about 8, 000 people walk, dressed in elaborate costumes.Many of the costumes are traditional Bavarian clothes such as men’s Lederhosen and women’s Dirndl.But sometimes people wear more unique outfits.Traditional music is played as well as Schlager, German popular music.Exciting music and dancing along with good food and drink have made Oktoberfest one of the most popular celebrations in all of Germany for almost two centuries.
The festival is so popular, in fact, that many people who once lived in Bavaria or even just visited want to create Oktoberfest in their community. Today Oktoberfest is celebrated in many cities outside of Munich as well.Most Oktoberfests celebrated in the US, Canada and Brazil were started by German immigrants. However, in Australia, many universities celebrate Oktoberfest so their students can experience the exciting festival every year.
