Volksfest

A Volksfest (pronounced [ˈfɔlks.fɛst]  listen ; "peoples' festival" in German) is a large event in Germany which usually combines a beer festival or wine festival and a travelling funfair. Attractions may include amusement rides, games of chance and skill, and food and merchandise vendors.

When there is a beer festival, it is common to build one or more beer tents (Festzelte), usually sponsored by a brewery, and set up beer gardens where it is possible to order traditional food and try the Festbier, or beer specially brewed for the season. A large beer tent will have hundreds of wooden benches with a seating capacity in the thousands and offer live music, being a favourite place for patrons to spend the evening. The well-known Oktoberfest is the world's biggest Volksfest and occurs yearly in Munich.

Admission to a Volksfest and the beer tents is free however you have to pay for each ride or game separately. In contrast to traveling carnivals in the USA, each ride in a Volksfest is independently run so tickets for several rides are uncommon. Inside the beer tents there are usually tables that can be reserved, while the rest are on a first-come, first-served basis.
