‘Oktoberfest’
which happens in Bavaria, Munich, Germany is one of the Largest Volksfest
(People's Fair) in the world. The first Oktoberfest was held in 1810 to
celebrate the October 12th marriage of Bavarian Crown Prince Ludwig
to the Saxon-Hildburghausen Princess Therese. In the earlier days Horse Races
were held at the Oktoberfest. But by 1819, the race had been called off,
replaced by beer carts and a carnival-like atmosphere.
It
is a 16 day long festival starting at the end of September till first week of
October. In a large ground various tents are built which serve Bavaria beer and
other alcoholic beverages along with German appetizers. People from all over
the world come to Germany to attend this festival.
We
at The Westin Mumbai Garden City are celebrating Oktoberfest at Eighteen The
Lounge. To spice up the event, enjoy chilled beer over exhilarating cricket
action on a large screen. Munch on to some traditional German Würstl (sausages)
along with Brezeln (Pretzel) and Knödel (potato or bread dumplings).
Relax
with your friends and family as we treat you to a range of innovative drinks,
tantalizing appetizers and fun filed cricketing! Hold your beer glass up and
