The Original Oktoberfest

The Deutsche Internationale Schule Pretoria invites all to their 48th annual Oktoberfest.

Inspired by the legendary Oktoberfest in München, Germany, this festival is the first and most authentic beer celebration in South Africa. Join the school, the German community, and over ten thousand guests in bringing German “Gemütlichkeit” to life under African skies.

In the main tent, entertainment is provided by the lively Oompah band "Die Frankenräuber". The Biergarten also features an awesome lineup of live music to keep the atmosphere vibrant and entertaining throughout the event. There is also a splendid variety of beers to delight even the most discerning connoisseurs, along with a wide range of other alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages to enjoy.

Feast on Germany’s rich food culture with delicious options like Eisbein, Kassler, Bockwurst, Brezel, and more. Don’t forget to grab some brand-new Oktoberfest merch, including T-shirts, caps and a few Lebkuchenherzen to complete the Oktoberfest experience.

Fun for all ages awaits with games, carnival rides, and other entertaining activities. Support the raffle campaign for just R30 and stand a chance to win amazing prizes.
