Edinburgh Oktoberfest moves inside Central Hall to guarantee weatherproof-beer festival fun vibes
Edinburgh’s Oktoberfest announces its best event ever, with a move inside Central Hall at Tollcross to stop the weather spoiling this year’s fun.
Grab your stein, step into your lederhosen and say “prost” to party fun in Edinburgh as Oktoberfest starts a whole new era in the capital.
Organisers are making sure that unpredictable weather can’t get in the way of year’s three-day festival in Scotland’s capital, from Thursday 8 to Saturday 10 October.
They’re moving from the big tent to leading venue Central Hall, where they’ll recreate the exciting authentic Bavarian experience inside – with imported German beer, beautiful bratwurst and thumping tunes among the treats on offer.
The move provides even more opportunities for extra choice, with an additional second beer on tap. Alongside the usual sweeter festival beer will be the special German craft beer from a 500-year-old brewery, with a slight herb note for quaffability.
Live party band Die Bergfetza will be over from Germany for the weekend playing lively folk, traditional Oktoberfest tunes and high-energy dance music. Their name literally means mountain party!
