Mike Hesketh from Two Tribes Organisation, the team behind previous Oktoberfest events, and the Central Park pop-up, said: “Oktoberfest just keeps getting bigger and better every year.
“The popularity of the event celebrations seems to be growing year after year, with more and more dressing up in traditional Bavarian attire.
“This year not only are we supersizing the Oktoberfest tent together with more décor and production, but have also added more dates to the diary, setting it up to be a huge month of partying at Times Square.”
