NSW Clubs Are Getting Their Steins and Schnitzels Ready for Oktoberfest

ADVERTISING

There are few annual festivities quite as fun as Oktoberfest. The German festival is traditionally celebrated right across the world from mid-September to the first Sunday in October — including right here in NSW — and clubs are planning to serve up more steins and pork knuckle than ever before.

Here is how your local club is joining in on das Vergnügen (fun).

Berowra RSL Club

On Saturday, 5 October the Club’s festivities will kick off in the Biergarten from 2pm until 5pm, with live music performed by Neville Kaye. Patrons will be able to savour the authentic flavours of Germany, with a special menu created just for the occasion and the Club firing up a bratwurst BBQ. More information can be found here.

Club Kirrawee
On Saturday, 19 October Club Kirrawee will host a night centred around good food, beer and traditional German music. One of Germany’s best beers, Weihenstephan Original, will be on tap served in steins, with the first stein included in the ticket price. There will also be prizes for the best-dressed male and female. More information can be found here.

Concordia Club
