Roll out the barrels! October signals the staging of many Oktoberfest celebrations across the country but the much awaited event is the 73rd Oktoberfest Manila. Presented by Sofitel Philippine Plaza Manila and the German Club Manila, Oktoberfest Manila is happening on October 20 - 23, 2011 and it is the second time for Sofitel Manila to host this very famous event held annually in Germany.
The event will showcase the "Munich" style beer festival that will definitely bring on the beers, bratwursts and Bavarian spirit. The Oktoberfest in Manila is considered as the only authentic Bavarian festival in the Philippines, featuring a celebration of traditions, entertainment, and Bavarian food and beverage that displays classic German folk festivals.
To mark the 201st year of the Oktoberfest, Sofitel Manila houses the event in its spectacular Harbor Garden Tent with a breathtaking natural resort setting to take the Oktoberfest 2011 to greater heights. For a more wonderful celebration, The Bavarian Sound Express, well-known from previous Oktoberfests in Manila, will keep guests singing and dancing all night long.
The Oktoberfest Manila launch held previously let us experience the sights and flavors of the German celebration -- authentic Oktoberfest tables and benches that were especially made to provide a festive beer garden setting; ladies in dirndls and gents in lederhosen went around to add to the "Munich" inspired Oktoberfest celebration; Bavarian delights such as fresh roasted pork knuckles, roasted calf, laugen rolls, grilled sausages and mouth-watering pastries were also be served, paired with refreshing, ice cold beer free flowing for everyone.
At the Sofitel lobby, the Oktoberfest house offers souvenirs and premium items to commemorate the festivities. Shirts, mugs, stuff toys and giant heart cookies are for sale for kids and adults alike.
Oktoberfest 2011 will start from 6pm until midnight on October 20 to 22, and from 10:30am to 2pm on October 23, which is Family Day, where inflatable bouncing castles, magicians, face painters and other fun games will delight the young and old alike during Sunday Brunch. For guests celebrating the Oktoberfest, there are special overnight accommodation rates offered on these dates.
