Kirkstall Brewery will be getting the ultimate makeover on Friday 27th September 2024, turning into an authentic German beer hall for two days of beer-fuelled mayhem. Expect beer swigging, glass-clinking and foot-stomping as Bavaria’s biggest celebration comes to Kirkstall for two days only.

It’s all about the beer. You’ll be able to gulp down German-style beers from a host of breweries, including home-grown favourites like North and imports from the likes of Veltins, Erdinger and Paulaner. Kirkstall are even brewing their very own 5.4% Festival Helles with German lager experts Braybrooke. Cheers!

Tuck into sizzling bratwursts

Beer and bratwurst are a match made in heaven, so you’ll be pleased to know that Kirkstall’s own Bavarian food pop-up Sausages Etc. will be back dishing out wall-to-wall bangers from start to finish. It’s the perfect post-sesh grub, and you’re bound to be going back for seconds.

Juicy bratwurst, hearty pretzels and tangy sauerkraut, they’re all here, and then some. With a stein of beer in one hand and a sausage in the other, is there any place you’d rather be?

Savour the sounds of the oompah band

It wouldn’t be Oktoberfest without a tune or two, and that’s where Bratwurst Brass come in. They’ll be on hand to soundtrack your evening, so get ready to slap your legs and stomp your feet as they reel off all the classics.

If all that wasn’t enough, there’ll also be live entertainment for each session. The details are yet to be confirmed, but expect lip synching, lederhosen and a whole lot of laughs. See you at the beer hall.
