Oktoberfest

Oktoberfest is a historic folk festival celebrated for 16-18 days in Bavaria, Germany and imitated throughout the world.  Oktoberfest began in 1810 as a celebration of the marriage between Crown Prince Ludwig and Princess Therese von Sachsen-Hildburghausen.  Today, it's a festival to celebrate the food, music and traditions of the Bavarian people while enjoying time with friends and family.  

 

At Rilke Schule, we partner with West Berlin Restaurant to bring authentic food and beverages to the Rilke family and community.  We typically offer multiple two-hour sessions over a weekend where individuals can purchase tickets to enjoy authentic German food, beverages and music in a family-friendly atmosphere.  

​

Oktoberfest will be Sat-Sun Oct 5-6, 2024​

Oktoberfest is one of RSV’s larger events of the year and would not be possible without the help of all our incredible Rilke parent volunteers!
