18th September - 3rd October 1999

 The Munich Oktoberfest - known by the locals as the "Wiesn" - is
the biggest public festival in the world and will be held this year
for the 166th time. Each year, the Oktoberfest is attended by
around 6 million visitors, who drink around 5 million liters of beer
and consume over 200,000 pairs of pork sausages - mostly in the
"beer tents" put up by the traditional Munich breweries.
