This year, we're bringing Germany's biggest celebration to Canberra - and you're invited!

OKTOBERFEST CANBERRA 2026 – THE ORIGINAL AND THE BEST!

Experience authentic Oktoberfest in Canberra at The Harmonie German Club

Prost! 216 years of tradition. One epic Canberra celebration.

Looking for the best Oktoberfest in Canberra? Experience the colour, music, food and atmosphere of Germany as Oktoberfest Canberra 2026 takes over The Harmonie German Club on Friday 30 and Saturday 31 October 2026.

Oktoberfest began in Munich in 1810, when celebrations were held for the marriage of Crown Prince Ludwig of Bavaria and Princess Therese. More than two centuries later, that famous Bavarian tradition continues around the world – including right here in Canberra.

The Harmonie German Club brings the spirit of Munich to the ACT with a huge weekend celebrating German culture, authentic food, imported German bier, live music and Bavarian tradition.

A TRUE GERMAN FESTIVAL IN CANBERRA

Step into a lively Bavarian celebration packed with entertainment, tradition and plenty of Gemütlichkeit.

Enjoy live Oompah music, German folk dancing, authentic German food, imported bier, traditional competitions, medieval combat displays and plenty of surprises throughout the weekend.

Come hungry! Oktoberfest Canberra is your chance to feast on German favourites, enjoy a cold imported bier and experience the food, music and hospitality Germany is famous for.

🥨 DRESS FOR OKTOBERFEST!

Dust off the Dirndl and pull on the Lederhosen – Oktoberfest is even better when you dress the part!

Traditional Bavarian outfits are encouraged, so embrace the German spirit, gather your Freunde and get ready to look wunderbar.
