10 Awesome Oktoberfest Party Ideas
Oktoberfest is the worlds largest fair taking place every year in Bavaria. You can also throw your own Oktoberfest party using the following Oktoberfest party ideas:
1. Send out invites in the fashion of beer goggles, bratwurst, beer kegs, beer glasses, beer steins or lederhosen. You could cut them out of cardboard! State clearly that guests will be charged on the door if they fail to dress up!
2. For costumes, guys get to wear the awful lederhosen. Hold them up with some braces and you will look truly ridiculous. Get yourself a hat with feather and some knee height socks and you are set to go!
3. Ladies, you get to wear traditional Bavarian or Alpine peasant girl costume. This includes a lacy blouse and tight bodice. You can also dye your hair blonde and tie it up in cute pig tails.
4. Get your decorations in the colors of blue and white, the Bavarian flag color. Get blue and white balloons and place them everywhere.
5. Try and make a long line of wooden tables and benches across the room to give it the look of a brau haus bier keller.
6. Bake some gingerbread men and hang them from the ceiling. Make cut outs of lederhosen, beer glasses and beer kegs and also hang them up!
7. They may not be attractive but get some German flags for the walls. Also get plenty of miniature ones for the table decorations.
8. You could hire a brass band to play traditional beer hall music, provided its in your budget.
9. Some traditional German food you should serve would be; sausage stuffed mushrooms, garlic bread, weiner schnitzel, bratwurst, nuremburger, sauerkraut, gingerbread, apple strudel and black forest cake.
10. The most important part of your Oktoberfest theme party is the beer and lots of it! Get in a large variety of German beer. There will be people wanting to sample a wide range. Get in some deep colored beers too! Germany makes the best beer in the world so enjoy!
