Best things to do in September 2025: Dubai plan your calendar

<div style="text-align: center;">Let&#39;s eat, drink and be merry! 
 
Oktoberfest is the world&#39;s most famous beer festival, taking place in the German city of Munich.&nbsp;The beer and folk festival kicks off in mid-September and lasts up to 16 or 18 days. But you do not have to fly to Munich just to experience Oktoberfest, we bring you the places here in Dubai where you can get all the German action.
