It is said that the Oktoberfest in Germany attracts 6 million people every year, consuming 6 million liters of beer each time and bringing 830 million euros in revenue to Munich.
In 2007, the total population of Germany was only 82 million, which means that about 8% of the people participated in the Oktoberfest.
