Oktoberfest was originally in October in Munich. But the weather is usually better in September. So the last weekend is the first weekend of October and you have two weekends prior to that. This year Sept 16. Also this year we have 2 extra days. The day of German unity is on Tuesday so instead of ending on the Sunday we get more.
Last year the weather was miserable, rainy and cold. There was one Sunny weekend day, the last day of the event..
