Begun in 1810, Oktoberfest is a celebration of Germany’s Bavarian culture. The festival takes place each year during the last two weeks of September into early October. GIPA’s annual Oktoberfest event brings together each of our schools to celebrate German language and culture in our own way with a full day of fun, fantastic food and drinks, and musical performances from our students. The event is also our biggest fundraising activity of the year — 100% of the proceeds support the German language program at our schools!
