The largest folk festival of the world, the so-called "Wiesn," begins in Munich on Sept. 22. More than six million visitors are expected to come to the Oktoberfest, which will last until Oct. 7. The organizers of the 174th celebration have put extra effort into keeping the festival's tradition. The Oktoberfest starts, in contrast to its name, in September, and it will end in the first weekend of October.
