Oktoberfest returns to Hastings in 2025 with a new venue, a fresh format and the same authentic Bavarian spirit that has made it a staple on the local events calendar since 2016. Taking place on Saturday 25th October, this year’s festival promises a full day of beer, bratwurst and brilliant live entertainment in a lively Munich-style setting.
Whether you’re joining us for the afternoon session or the evening party, expect a mix of traditional German culture and high energy performances. With communal benches, steins flowing and singalong favourites, it’s the ultimate Oktoberfest experience on the South Coast.
What to Expect:
🍺 Traditional Oompah music from resident band DDFK plus The Cover Ups closing the evening
🍺 Authentic German beers, wines, spirits and bratwurst
🍺 Games, prizes and crowd interaction with host Greg Draven
🍺 Evening performance by local favourites The Cover Ups
🍺 Prizes for best dressed – lederhosen and dirndls encouraged
