The stress and hectic pace of London city are often factors preventing you enjoying the entertainment provided by the city. So… to get away from them, you have a chance to soak up German culture on the last week of September and first week of October.
This festival has been held in London since 2011. This year the venue is here.
Words are unnecessary to explain what the Oktoberfest is. So if you’ve heard of this festival and you’re in London, it is the perfect opportunity to disconnect from the week’s routine.
The most famous and biggest Bavarian party in the UK, you can find the authentic German beer and food (Brezel, Bratwurst, Schweinebraten, Hendl, Schnitzel), typical German live music, orchestra, full decorations, and also the Waitresses and Waiters dressed in Dirndl and Lederhosen.
This entire atmosphere under a tent filled with long tables, in which you will not hesitate to dance on. If you want to go to the party, you must get dressed with Bavarian costumes. Not to worry if you do not have one, you can rent them for £30 each costume.
Notwithstanding, pay attention! Don’t fall into stereotypes, because the London Oktoberfest is not the typical German beer festival, because you can find other types of drinks besides beer like for example, cider, wine and soft drinks. And neither it’s only a German & food music festival, because there are also vegetarian food available, current live music bands and DJ!.
On the other hand, children are allowed on Sunday’s lunch where they can enjoy the Oktoberfest family experiences.
And one last tip… Take care of yourselves! Don’t forget to get back home by bus, subway or taxi, because after taking pleasure from this party you won’t be able to drive… furthermore official website advice us on this way too.
