Brewhemia Edinburgh brings Oktoberfest back to the Beer Palace this September
Bavarian-inspired feasting, towering steins of Munich’s big six and live brass bands are taking over Scotland’s only Beer Palace from the 19th of September to the 4th of October.
It’s time to dust off your lederhosen, gather your friends and get ready to raise a stein, because Oktoberfest is returning to Brewhemia.
From the 19th of September to the 4th of October, Brewhemia’s Beer Palace will be transformed into a celebration of all things Bavarian, bringing the food, drinks and raucous atmosphere of Germany’s biggest beer festival right into the heart of Edinburgh.
Whether you’re planning a group celebration, looking for a unique night out in Edinburgh, or want to sample German beer in a vessel that’s bigger than your head, Brewhemia’s Oktoberfest is bringing three weeks of Bavarian-inspired debauchery to the capital.
Steins, Schnitzels and Serious Feasting
No Oktoberfest would be complete without plenty of beer and even more food, and Brewhemia is going all in.
Guests can expect steins of beer, Bavarian-inspired dishes and hearty plates made for sharing, with plenty on the menu to keep hungry festival-goers fueled throughout the celebrations.
From golden, crispy schnitzels to indulgent German-inspired favourites including authentic Wursts and giant pretzels. The food is designed for proper feasting, because a little bit of drinking is always better when there’s something hearty to soak it up with.
And, of course, there’ll be plenty to wash it all down with, including German beers served by the stein for the full Oktoberfest experience.
Brass and Live Entertainment
Then there’s the entertainment.
Throughout the festival, the Beer Palace will be bringing the noise with an exclusive line-up of touring brass bands, specially selected to take over the venue with big tunes and a serious dose of Bavarian spirit, giving guests the perfect soundtrack to their steins and schnitzels.
Making their Beer Palace debut this year, Flat Cap Brass are kicking off the celebrations on the 19th of September, bringing their explosive live show to Brewhemia for the first time.
They’ll be joined throughout the festival by Edinburgh’s own The Brass Rats on the 25th of September and the 2nd of October, as well as Atomic Brass on the 26th of September and Loud Noises Brass are closing the festival on the 3rd of October.
Guests can expect a high-energy live soundtrack as some of the UK’s most exciting brass acts turn the Beer Palace into Edinburgh’s ultimate Oktoberfest experience – bringing a taste of Munich to the city.
The entertainment doesn’t end with the music. Brewhemia’s in-house entertainment team will be bringing their own brand of immersive live entertainment to the festival, with performers getting stuck into the celebrations and plenty of opportunities to get involved. Expect Schnapps skis, beer and wurst sampling and a few Oktoberfest goodies up for grabs along the way.
At Brewhemia, watching the entertainment is only half the fun – you’re part of it.
Ready to say “Prost”?
Brewhemia’s Oktoberfest runs from the 19th of September to the 4th of October, giving Edinburgh plenty of opportunity to get involved.
Whether it’s a long-overdue night out with friends, a work night out with a difference or an excuse to embrace your inner Bavarian - get out your dirndls, book your table and get ready to raise a stein.
