Oktoberfest 2007 in Florida has Many Places to Celebrate, Enjoy Beer and German Food

September 30th, 2007

Oktoberfest 2007 in FL

 By Kirby Collins

You don’t need to fly to Munich to enjoy Oktoberfest in Florida, Florida loves Oktoberfest as much as Florida loves beer and great German food. Floridians also love a party and there are many taking place.

Oktoberfest is a celebration of beer and food, though the history of Oktoberfest began with the marriage of Prince Ludwig and his bride Therese of Bavaria October 12, 1810. To honor the marriage a parade took place for the first time in 1835. Oktoberfest is now known as the Largest People’s Fair in the World.
