Southampton Oktoberfest brings the atmosphere of a Bavarian beer hall to the heart of the city. Long tables, live Oompah music and a buzzing crowd set the scene, with fancy dress encouraged but not compulsory.
The Bavarian Strollers lead the entertainment with lively performances during every session. DJs take over between their sets, while Bavarian dancers bring traditional moves and colourful costumes to the celebration.
Come hungry because the food court will be serving authentic Bavarian favourites, including bratwurst and currywurst, alongside vegan options. Bars will offer draft beers, bottled Prosecco and wine, spirits, soft drinks and low or no-alcohol choices.
Pick the experience that suits your group. Standing tickets put you right in the heart of the action, while seated tickets give you a place at the tables. For a bigger celebration, VIP tables are sold for groups of ten and include private seating, queue-jump entry, waitress service, a souvenir stein and a first pint for every guest.
