Three Nights of Live Music from a Bavarian Band · Original Hofbräu Beer from Munich · German Food
Three Nights of Live Music from a Bavarian Band, original Hofbräu beer from Munich, and German food at the Solaire Grand Ballroom — Manila's largest Oktoberfest.
Since 2018, the German Club Manila has filled the Grand Ballroom for one Oktoberfest weekend each October. In 2026, we return for three nights — Thursday 8, Friday 9, and Saturday 10 October — with the Bavarian Sound Express, Hofbräu Beer, and a family-style Bavarian feast you can order and re-order all evening. The night unfolds from doors at 6:00 PM through to a late-night dance set — see the full programme.
Whether it's your first Oktoberfest or your fifteenth, Willkommen.
Traditional Bavarian dishes such as schnitzel, sausages, roast pork, and pretzels carefully designed by Solaire’s VP for F&B, Sebastian Kellerhoff. Poured exclusively with original Hofbräu München Oktoberfestbier.
Raffle draws live on stage throughout the night. Three nights filled with island getaways, fine dining, premium home gadgets, and Bavarian gourmet hampers waiting to be brought home!
The Bavarian Sound Express, an 11 member live band led by Klaus Weih — flies in from Germany each year to play all three nights, from the 8:00 PM onwards.
Since 1950, as tradition, the Mayor will tap the first keg and will then shout “O’zapft ist!” meaning “it is tapped!”. This will then signal the start of the non-stop beer drinking and dancing for the Oktoberfest guests.
Popular folk music, marches and polka songs will be played by the band. As the night carries on, the music is louder and more people begin to sing, linking arms and swinging their beer mugs.
Pick the zone that suits your group. Specific tables are designated by the event team to fit your party size. We encourage smaller groups may share a table with another group in the same zone.
Prime location for those looking for an exclusive, unobstructed view of the stage, with private table service.
Perfect for high energy guests looking to be part of the action — our fastest selling ticket zone.
The classic Oktoberfest experience nearer to the .
Now in its 7th year, the Oktoberfest Football Tournament kicks off on October 10, 2026, Saturday morning at Club United, Parañaque. This is a friendly competition with teams from Bangkok, Kuala Lumpur, Saigon, Singapore, Jakarta, Cebu, ADB, and the GC Eagles.
Oktoberfest began in Munich in 1810 as a royal Bavarian wedding celebration. Through the years it evolved into a folk and beer festival. The Manila edition follows the Munich celebration with live brass-band music, long communal tables, original Hofbräu beer, and traditional Bavarian dress.
When the band strikes up, expect guests to stand on the benches (not the tables — that’s a Munich rule) and raise their mugs with a hearty “Prost!”. Come hungry, come thirsty and join in the party.
Dress code is smart casual or traditional Bavarian — Dirndl for women, Lederhosen for men.
If you’d like to pick up traditional Bavarian dress, Solaire will sell Dirndls and Lederhosen at The Shoppes lobby during the event week.
