Oktoberfest in the Twin cities - Counselor Realty

Did you know you can experience Germany's annual Oktoberfest without ever leaving the Twin Cities? Minneapolis and Saint Paul throw huge Oktoberfest celebrations each year, giving the North Star State residents a truly delicious taste of German tradition. This yearly celebration in Munich runs between September 21 and October 5, but Minnesotan pub owners like to start the party a little earlier. Our real estate agents love Oktoberfest — if you visit one of these five hot spots throughout September and October, we're sure you will too!
