Are you looking for fun things to do in Miami in 2008? Have no fear, because there is plenty planned to keep residents and visitors busy all year long. One of the Miami events on tap for 2008 is the Coral Gables October Fest. For over a decade now, the Florida festival has exposed people from all over to the culture of the German people.

Scheduled for October 2-13 of 2008, the annual Florida festival will be held once again at Fritz and Franz Beirhaus. The website boasts that it was voted the Best Austrian-German-Bavarian Miami Restaurant of 2007 by the AOL CityGuide. What better place is there to hold a German Festival whose roots go back to the 1800s? The Miami event will feature great German music, beer and the famous cuisine that has made Fritz and Franz a name in the City. There will even be a yodeling contest and other fun activities.
