It is one of the most awaited festival in the world...Oktoberfest!
Oktoberfest originated in Munich, Germany wherein overflowing beer (the one made and brewed only in Munich) is served during the festival.
In the Philippines, we celebrate Oktoberfest with music band competitions and free concerts, aside from the bottomless beer of course.
My friends and I were so delighted that the OFW organization here in Doha came up with an event to celebrate this.
It was held in the Doha Aqua Park and the experience was quite good even if I preferred not to swim.
The drive was about an hour an a half outside Doha and it somewhat made us feel that we are going to a province back home.
Different Filipino groups prepared their performances to entertain the attendees.
There are food stalls selling Filipino dishes and also some booths selling stuffs, some of them were shipped from Philippines.
The swimming pools are great especially the one with the waves.
But the most important thing is that you had spent quality time with friends and family.
We were able to unwind and we had had a good laugh!
Here are some photos that I had taken.
