Oktoberfest is the raging talk of town where fans want to make sure that they get the best deals to attend the historic event. The festival can be traced back to 1810 when Crown Prince Ludwig, who was later to become the king, got married. The citizens of the area were invited to the festivities that took place on the fields, right before the city gates, in celebration of the royal wedding. The fields were named Theresienwiese after the Princess Therese. The close of the event was marked by horse races, in the Royal Family's presence and thus ended the festivities. The tradition of horse races in the Oktoberfest was established in following years when these races were repeated as regulars of the event. Munich's founding citizens took responsibility for the management of the festival in 1819, and it was then decided to make it a yearly event. Oktoberfest has also featured entertainment rides such as Germany's travelling Enterprise ride, which was brought back as a regular in 2005. The festival was later extended and its dates pushed so that the schedule could fit in the warmer and longer days at the end of September. This festival continued to take place through the years and was recognized as a world event by 1960, owing to its enormous size.
The Oktoberfest was originally held in the sixteen days leading to as well as including the following October's first Sunday. In 1994, due to German reunification, its schedule was altered such that if October's first Sunday fell on the first or second of the month, the festival could be held till the third, which is German Unity Day. The festival is thus now seventeen days long if the first Sunday falls in the second, and eighteen days long if it falls on the first. In 2010, Oktoberfest lasted till the first Monday of October since the event marked its two-hundredth anniversary as well.
Oktoberfest offers a real opportunity to music lovers, to come and celebrate several days of music in a festival that has been taking place for just over two hundred years. The Oktoberfest celebrated its two-hundredth anniversary in 2010. The anniversary featured a horse race presented with historical costumes on the first day. A historical Oktoberfest was held a day before the commencement of the actual festival, in the southern region of the festival's grounds. In addition, a specially brewed beer alongside a museum tent and the horse race gave the attendees a good feel of what the event was like in its initial years.
