An Oompah Christmas with the Aldbourne Band
Live music
Oktoberfest lands in Reading as the clocks change. Afternoons mean beer festivals and Bavarian nights, giant steins and live music, and evenings mean dancing, with lederhosen a matter for you alone. The food never quite steps back, bratwurst and pretzels on nearly every menu and long tables in the town centre where the table takes over your evening. Or is a good beer with friends the actual answer? See what's on for Oktoberfest 2026 in Reading and book your tickets before they're gone.
