German Festival

Overview

Three days. One pub. Plenty of German-themed food, beverages and entertainment. That's what's on the agenda at the Regatta's German Festival, which comes to the Toowong hangout between Friday, October 12 and Sunday, October 14.

As you've no doubt noticed, the shindig takes place during the month that's all about brews, pretzels and pretending you're in Europe — so you may as well grab a stein and say "prost!" to the occasion. To help, expect German musicians to play a spritely tune, while a selection of draught and bottled beers, and German liqueurs and wines will also assist. Upping the ante even further, there'll be a jägermeister ice luge, too.

The food menu has yet to be revealed, but you can safely start salivating over pork and baked treats, two staples of every German-themed menu. It all takes place in the Regatta's laneway, and entry is free. You'll still have to pay for whatever you'd like to eat and drink, but it's cheaper than a plane ticket.
