Camden Oktoberfest, Electric Ball Room
Returning once again to the iconic music hall, this is a party not to miss. This year will be the largest yet and the music hall will be fully decked-out with long tables and bunting, just like a traditional beer hall. With lashings of beer from all over Germany and supplied by ABK, attendees can expect to spend a fun stein-filled evening dancing to music from No Limit Street Band.
Tickets from £20, electricballroom.co.uk
London Oktoberfest, St Pauls Green
Launched in 2011, London Oktoberfest is once again taking over the streets of London. With over 50,000 guests each year, this is certainly the biggest Bavarian booze up in London. Revellers can expect to find plenty of beer, delicious food and bands that have travelled all the way from Germany blaring classic Oompah tunes. Also encouraging young people to come and enjoy the festivities as Oktoberfest London has special deals for students.
Tickets from £10.00, london-oktoberfest.co.uk
Brixton Octoberfest, Electric Brixton Town Hall Parade
The South London favourite has donned its lederhosen and stein for not one, but two days this year. Held in a lively beer hall, fully stocked with plenty of traditional German beer and featuring classic street foodie favourites such as bratwurst and other German treats, there’s something for everyone. Traditional dress is fully encouraged, as is dancing on tables.
