Get out your Lederhose or Dirndl (or not) and join the largest Oktoberfest in America! Every year, over 500,000 people travel to downtown Cincinnati to celebrate German culture in form of music, food and plenty of beer. The vendors offer a variety of delicious food like bratwurst, sauerkraut, potato salad strudel and other pastries. The drinking selection is just as big. Even though you can choose some different wines the main focus lies on the variety of different beers and brews; Lager, Ale, Weizen and much more, in all kinds of different ways. However the food and the beer are the main attraction here, don't miss out on the adorable Running of the Wieners. A special event where Dachshunds ('Wiener-dogs') in hot dog costumes race down a small stretch of street to raise money for the dachshund rescue charity.
