    I would not equate the formality of a Burns Supper on par with the frivolities of an Oktoberfest. In lines with your analogy, I would say that wearing a kilt to an Oktoberfest would be like wearing Lederhosen to a Highland games or a Celtic festival – which would certainly be eye-catching, but not at all inappropriate.
