Oktoberfest in the Gardens 2024 - Melbourne

Australia’s largest and longest running Oktoberfest in the Gardens festival is back in Melbourne, the city which propelled the event to the national behemoth it is today. Last year, the event relocated to the picturesque waterfront setting of Catani Gardens in St Kilda. Melbourne has cherished Oktoberfest in the Gardens for over a decade – and we're excited for this new chapter in its storied history.

Inspired by a love of the traditional Bavarian festival and great bier, Oktoberfest in the Gardens features colossal beer halls, authentic German food stalls, roving performers, thrill rides, sideshow alley, silent discos, and an eclectic mix of entertainment and on-stage competitions across multiple stages throughout the afternoon and evening. You’ll be able to taste your way across Europe with a large selection of imported German beer, cider, wine and a range of other beverages.
