Oktoberfests around the Globe

Oktoberfest Hannover, Hannover, Germany, September 25–October 11, 2009

To get a feel for what another Oktoberfest is like within Germany, head to the northern state of Lower Saxony. Seven different bakeries and several candy shops set up shop at the Hannover fest, so those with a sweet tooth will certainly be very pleased. Noted to be a very family-friendly event, the rides, games and adventures to be had there are unrivaled. Friday night fireworks displays and a lantern parade keep the good times rolling even after dark.
