Cannstatter Volksfest

The Cannstatter Volksfest, held annually in Stuttgart, Germany, is one of the largest beer festivals in the world, second only to Oktoberfest in Munich. Typically running from late September to early October, it lasts for 17 days and attracts millions of visitors. The festival features large beer tents hosted by local breweries, traditional German food, rides, games, and cultural events. Originally started in 1818 as an agricultural fair, it has evolved into a lively celebration of Swabian culture, showcasing local traditions, music, and crafts in a festive atmosphere.
