TRADITIONAL German and Croatian folk dancers, including Claudia, left, Emily, Monique and Franka, are getting into the party spirit ahead of CROktoberfest. Now in its seventh year, the annual event will bring Oktoberfest to the West but with a Croatian twist. The festival will showcase traditional folk dancers, live bands, village Olympics, jumping castles, face-painting, an Elvis impersonator and their infamous duck mascot. CROktoberfest will be held at the Melbourne Knights Stadium in North Sunshine on Saturday 20 October. For information visit www.melbournecroatiasc.com/croktoberfest 88001 Picture: DAMJAN JANEVSKI
