Berlin International Beer Festival Germany

Nobody does beer festivals quite like the Germans! Along with the Oktoberfest in Munich and London's Great British Beer Festival, Berlin forms part of the big three beer events in the world. Attracting upwards of 750,000 visitors, the atmosphere is of joyous, beer-swilling fun.

Held on the first weekend in August every year, the festival has a 'beer mile' which hosts 240 breweries from 80 different countries. It's located directly in the city center along Karl-Marx-Allee in Berlin Friedrichshain.
