Thousands gather to celebrate the different kinds of beers from all over the world and it’s an event not to be missed. In fact, people from Goa have even been known to make a special trip to Germany just for Oktoberfest.
Oktoberfest 2018 begins on the 26th of October and goes on till the 28th of October. There are just around three days to go for Goa’s biggest beer festival.
