Bier und bratwurst: Cork to serve up Oktoberfest Beag

Dust down the lederhosen and prepare to clink your steins to the sounds of Bavarian music, because Oktoberfest will be staged in Cork City again this year.

Last year, more than 7,000 visitors attended the Paulaner Oktoberfest Beag, and organisers are hoping for even bigger crowds this year when it is hosted at the former Beamish & Crawford Brewery from Sep 13-22.

Festival-goers can immerse themselves in everything German, from tasty beers to authentic German dishes and even funfair rides.
