Before you tap the keg and turn up the oom-pah,..... here's a bit of history about the event and the beer style both named Oktoberfest............ The first Oktoberfest was not really a festival at all, but the public celebration of the wedding of Crown Prince Luitpold I and Princess Theressa of Bavaria on October 17, 1810.

Anniversary celebrations continued each year, usually starting in late September and ending in the first week of October.
