Oktoberfest 2014
Beer, pork knuckles and oversized pretzels, we're coming for you.
Overview
Get your lederhosen cleaned, your stein arm warmed up and your belly prepped for endless pork knuckles and oversized pretzels. Willkommen to Oktoberfest!
This inaugural celebration of all things German starts over October 10-12 then is back for round zwei on October 17-19. Brisbane is fortunate to be the home to Australia’s largest event of this kind, so you know the beer will be flowing and the snacks piling up in greater fashion than anywhere in this hemisphere.
Not only is this the only way to get your German fix (short of catching a plane), the entertainment is non-stop — yodelling, dancing, singing and cow bell ringing will bring out the giddy in young and old. Strongmen may compete in the jam doughnut eating competition or out-beard their neighbour, while the ladies are for some reason kept away from the doughnuts and funnelled towards Miss Oktoberfest Brisbane.
