  1. The mountain range region of Villa General Belgrano dresses up every year in October to commemorate the annual National Beer Festival. This celebration of drinking, joy, and frolic takes place in the German-founded city of Belgrano. The hills of Córdoba are home to a large population of German immigrants. As a result, when they came to settle here, they also brought a version of the German Oktoberfest with them. This celebration honors Oktoberfest, a pagan ritual that began five centuries ago in Munich, Germany, in which the glittering goddess enters the body like a cold stream and takes possession of the spirit worshiped.


    In the Beer Village, this event is commemorated for eleven days (a new venue specially designed for the festival). Several liters of beer are consumed by the attendants, who are supplied in massive German mugs. The major national and international beer brands participate in this festival, where their premium, traditional, and unique goods are promoted in various stands.

    Oktoberfest
    is held in the beer garden of the city. Breweries that have been around for decades come here to market their own beers, as well as German traditions and food, to the locals. With a large participation, this is definitely one of the most famous festivals in Argentina.
