Yes, we have our own Oktoberfest. Called Zhovtenfest, it will be happening in Kyiv this weekend, pairing 40 beer brands from local and international breweries with hundreds of people ready to make a good use of the varieties.
Actually, beer will only be part of the attraction at the festival.
Organizers plan to turn it into a family-friendly event with plenty of non-boozie activities for kids, as well as a grocery fair and a concert.
Visitors will also have a chance to try delicious dishes and traditional beer snacks made by local chefs. So, pretzels, beware!
Zhovtenfest. Oct. 12-14. Friday from 4 p.m. Saturday-Sunday from 12 a.m. Khreschatyk. Free
