Since launching in 2016, Hastings Oktoberfest has become a favourite October event, attracting visitors from across Sussex and beyond.
German Beer, Food and Entertainment
Visitors can enjoy a wide selection of German beers, wines and spirits alongside authentic Bavarian favourites including bratwurst, currywurst and giant pretzels. Live oompah bands, DJs, sing-alongs and interactive games keep the entertainment going throughout the evening.
