From craft beers, delicious food and Oktoberfest-themed specials, here’s a taste of what you can look forward to at some of our favourite restaurants, bars and butchers in Singapore.
Did you know this about Oktoberfest?
The first Oktoberfest festival took place on 12 October 1810, when Crown Prince Ludwig, later to become King Ludwig I, was married to Princess Therese of Saxony Hildburghausen. Back then, the citizens of Munich were invited to attend the festivities held on the fields in front of the city gates to celebrate the happy royal event. Traditionally, the Oktoberfest celebration begins in the third weekend of September and ends on the first Sunday of October.
