Oktoberfest is 'the mother of all parties'

Posted by Greg Throughton



Munich is the perfect destination for owners of Vaillant caravan water heaters in need of a short break.



The city's annual Oktoberfest celebrations began on September 17th and will run until October 3rd and Brits are definitely in for a treat if they make the trip.



"It's kind of the mother of all parties," explained Coralie Modschiedler, commissioning editor at the World Travel Guide.



"It's not just people getting drunk – there's actually a good atmosphere and surprisingly it's quite a family-friendly event," she added.



Entry is free but visitors are advised to book a seat in the beer tent as they get booked up very quickly, however, she said that not getting into the beer tent does not mean missing out on the party.



As it is held over three weeks Ms Modschiedler advised staying away over the weekend as it gets very busy and instead visit on a Thursday or Monday when it is quieter.
