This performance is by the talented Andy Crossbie, though they're also hosting live bands Rats In The Kitchen and Jewels Party Band across their three dates of celebration. Plus, there'll be authentic German food and drink available too.

Upgrade your Bottomless!

Say goodbye to boring weekends and hello to Oktoberfest at The Lawn Club. Every Saturday in October, the venue turns into a Bavarian playground with bottomless drinks, delicious bratwursts, and a vibe so lively you won't want to leave.

Table dancing, big energy, and laughs are all part of the deal, and at £39.50, it's the perfect recipe for an outrageous October night in Manchester's Spinningfields.

Manchester: Freight Island

Get your lederhosen ready as Freight Island's Oktoberfest is back. The venue turns into a Bavarian playground with steins overflowing, bratwurst sizzling, and live music that keeps the party going all night.

Whether you're here for the beer, the beats, or the brats, expect sing-alongs, audience games, themed cocktails, and surprises at every turn. Perfect for groups, reunions, or anyone looking for an authentic German festival right in Manchester - tickets start from £16.75, so grab yours before the fun sells out.

London: Munich Cricket Club

The Munich Cricket Club Tower Hill, along with its vibrant sister venues in Canary Wharf and Victoria, is once again hosting one of London's most electric Oktoberfest celebrations. Renowned for bringing the heart of Bavaria to the capital all year round, Munich Cricket Club transforms its iconic venues into a festival of steins, schnitzels, and song.

Look forward to a celebration of German tradition with a London twist, complete with lively Oompah bands, traditional Bavarian attire, and the ceremonial tapping of beer barrels straight from Munich.
