Oktoberfests in North America, 2008

Known as the world's largest public festival, the Munich Oktoberfest will be enjoyed by almost seven million visitors this year alone. Fortunately, for those of us who can't make it to die Wiesn for the world's biggest party, over 150 Oktoberfest events celebrating German culture, food and beverages are staged across this country every year — from New York to Seattle. With 16% of the US population claiming German ancestry, it's no wonder that Oktoberfest is such a popular annual event!
