Oktoberfest: New traditional Playmobil costume couple
Just in time for the start of Munich's Oktoberfest, Playmobil presents a new traditional costume couple that captures Bavarian tradition and joie de vivre in miniature format. Dirndl, lederhosen, gingerbread hearts, and pretzels—the two figures are a loving homage to the world-famous festival and a charming souvenir at the same time.
Bavarian culture and joie de vivre
Every year, Oktoberfest attracts millions of visitors from all over the world and, like no other festival, stands for Bavarian culture, conviviality, and joie de vivre – far beyond the borders of Munich. Strolling together through the festively decorated streets, experiencing the colorful hustle and bustle, and enjoying typical delicacies such as pretzels, white sausages, or roasted almonds are an integral part of the festival for many. It is these special moments full of laughter, music, and warmth that show how wonderful it is to share living traditions with one another.
Oktoberfest in miniature
The success of “Schwarzwald Marie” in recent weeks has already shown the attention and resonance that figures with cultural references can achieve. With the traditional costume couple, Playmobil is continuing this idea and turning Oktoberfest in miniature format into a piece of culture that can be collected, given as a gift, or kept as a souvenir. And together with other matching playsets, visitors can reenact their visit to the folk festival at home.
