One of Kent’s largest Oktoberfest celebrations is back for another round after selling out last year.

The German beer festival will return to Mote Park in Maidstone with two sessions of Bavarian games and authentic bier.

The day will begin with an afternoon session, which runs from 12pm to 5pm and is open to visitors aged 18 and over.

There will then be an evening session from 6pm to 11pm, which visitors must be aged 23 or over to attend.

Both time slots will include live Oompah music, cover bands, DJs and party games.

There will also be a selection of German beers and food, such as bratwurst, on offer.

The event is organised by Lucas Live, who are behind some of Maidstone’s biggest summer concerts including Rock the Mote, Maid of Stone and Soultasia as part of the Park Live series.

“Oktoberfest is one of our most popular events, and we’re so pleased to bring it back for another round in 2023,” says Lucas Live marketing manager. “Expect the usual amount of partying, games, laughs, music and plenty of authentic German bier!”

This year’s Oktoberfest will take place on Saturday, September 30 at Mote Park in Maidstone. You can book tickets online here.

The first 500 tickets are available at a discounted price of £10.
