Nordhausen puts its evenings into Oktoberfest. Early hours belong to beer festivals and Bavarian nights, giant steins and live music, the late ones to dancing, with lederhosen strictly personal. The food runs across both halves, bratwurst and pretzels on nearly every menu and long tables in the centre with the hills sitting north of everything. Or is one good beer with friends the real aim? See what's on for Oktoberfest 2026 in Nordhausen and book your tickets before they're gone.
