4 places to have a wunderbar Oktoberfest in Dubai
Prost!
That time of the year has come once again and we are gearing up for a celebration like no other in Dubai – Oktoberfest is back. If you fancy a few pints then this is the perfect time for you to get involved. Oktoberfest was originally a celebration of a royal wedding and has since become a carnival and celebration of all things Bavarian.
4 places to celebrate Oktoberfest in Dubai.
Barasti
The world’s most loved Bavarian beer festival is coming to one of Dubai’s most loved beach clubs. Name a better duo than Barasti and Oktoberfest, we’ll wait. Taking place until Sunday, October 6. Think pretzels, strudels and bratwurst all washed down with beer towers, steins and more.
Barasti Beach, Le Meridien Mina A’Salam, Sat Sept 21 to Sun Oct 6. @barastibeach
The Els Club
Join Golf Digest on October 18 for this one-of-a-kind golfing experience at The Els Club with tasty treats both on and off course to keep you going. Included in the day, you’ll get access to the practice facilities from 11am ahead of your 1.30pm shotgun start in the 18-hole Individual Stableford tournament. Also included on your golfing day out, is a pair of German brews, two refill vouchers, a cheeky Bavarian shot waiting for you in your golf buggy, AND an Oktoberfest-themed food box.
