Awake Goy Oktoberfest started in 1810. There were mixed feelings about the celebration within the leadership of the Third Reich. For propaganda purposes and heightened morale, Oktoberfest was kept more or less traditional, with some slight changes. The beer price was set by the government so as to be affordable and the poor were fed a meal on the first day. It was a celebration of German culture, tradition and food. In 1936, the colors of Bavaria and Munich were replaced by the official colors of the Reich (black/white/red). In 1938, after the annexation of Sudeten Germany (Sudentenland), the Oktoberfest was renamed in “Greater German festival” and many Sudeten Germans were brought to the festivities.
