The Oktoberfest Experience

Let the “Spirit of Gemuetlichkeit” continue year round! Why not launch your convention or function with some “oompah-pah” or bid “Auf Wiedershen” by giving your delegates the true flavour of Kitchener-Waterloo with an Oktoberfest theme. For groups of 30 to 3,000 the Oktoberfest events committee will customize a special Oktoberfest themed event that promises fun, good times and above all, a successful and memorable event for your clients!

The services provided include…but are not limited to:

  • Decorating: Your venue will have a genuine Bavarian Festhalle atmosphere
  • Meet & Greet: Your delegates will be welcomed by the Oktoberfest committee in traditional Bavarian dress & will receive a souvenir upon entering the venue
  • Keg tapping: Two of your delegates will assist in the tapping of the keg, a highlight of the annual festival. All delegates will get the opportunity to fill their steins with a sample and raise it up for a traditional cheer “Ein Prosit!” An accordionist will perform as delegates enter the venue & for the keg tapping. They can be greeted by the president, Miss Oktoberfest or Onkel Hans
  • Entertainment: Arrangements can be made for an award winning Bavarian Band with a repertoire of polkas, waltzes and contemporary music. A Bavarian folk dance group can also be available to perform Bavarian dance for your delegates.
  • Souvenirs: Add colour & a keepsake of your event by including souvenirs such as pins, hats, feathers, or customized stein/t-shirt.
