Yorktoberfest

Yorktoberfest is the annual Bavarian beer festival held at York Racecourse. After the successful debut in 2021, Yorktoberfest celebrates all things German during two weekends in October. Fill your stein with beer, grab a tasty snack, and enjoy traditional Bavarian music, dances, and the funfair.

Yorktoberfest features authentic German entertainment, such as the Bavarian Strollers band, which performs oompah tunes. Their Bavarian table dances and German ‘Prosit’ toasts will surely create a memorable experience. Attendees can also enjoy classic disco tunes and some powerful vocals,

German-inspired food stalls offer plenty of bratwurst, currywurst, schnitzel, largepretzels, and famous apple strudel. The atmospheric Bavarian Bar and The Dog Haus offer not just excellent brews, but also wines, proseccos, and cocktails. German-inspired food and vegetarian options are available. Amusements rides include traditional Dodgems and Twister and other funfair favorites.

Yorktoberfest doors are open from 7pm to 11 pm during the first weekend and from 1pm to 5 pm during the second weekend. Standard seating costs £20 per person. A standard table of six is £120, and VIP individual seating - £30.
