Love nothing more than an ice-cold stein and a salty pretzel? Oktoberfest Brisbane has got you sorted. Back for its tenth year and bigger than ever, Oktoberfest Brisbane is here to prove that there ain’t no party like a German party. This is the time to embrace your inner German – don your dirndl or lederhosen and indulge in the vast selection of food and specially brewed German beers on offer.
To celebrate a decade of exceptionally good times, Oktoberfest Brisbane is giving one lucky winner and a friend the chance to adventure in the land where Oktoberfest began – Germany itself! Yes, you heard right and no, this is not a joke! The winner will receive the trip of a lifetime for two people with round-trip airfares to Germany, seven nights’ accommodation and some distinctly German activities all thanks to Oktoberfest Brisbane, Singapore Airlines and the German National Tourism Office. Sprechen sie Deutsch? Nein? That’s no problem! This incredible prize also includes one term of German language school before you take off to help you get friendly with the locals.
You’ll kick off your German sojourn in the home of Oktoberfest with two nights in Munich, with breakfast included each day. While you’re there you’ll visit the baroque beauty Nymphenburg Palace or Munich Residence, plus see the city’s sights on a Gray Line bus tour. Next you’re off for another two nights in the outrageously scenic Garmisch, with breakfast included each day before you head out and explore. You’ll then spend two nights in Nuremberg to take in the splendour of medieval architecture, staying at the uber-enchanting Hotel Drei Raben with breakfast each morning. That’s not all you’ll do there – a celebration of Oktoberfest wouldn’t be complete without some serious German beer sampling at one of Germany’s finest breweries, so we’re sending you to do just that at Tucher, plus you and your friend will get to have dinner with the Tucher brewing team. As if this trip couldn’t get any better, your final stop is in Rüdesheim am Rhein, nestled in Germany’s renowned Rhine Valley wine region. You’ll have one night in the stunning Rüdesheimer Schloss wine hotel with dinner and breakfast – imagine sipping on riesling and dining on German delicacies to the sounds of the live Rüdesheimer Schloss house band. This dreamy German sojourn also includes a five-day rail pass to aid your on your adventure. No need to pinch yourself – this is legit.
