OKTOBERFEST is returning to Walton Hall and Gardens – here’s everything you need to know.

The event, which is a celebration of German culture and tradition, promises to be bigger and better than ever.

The Old Riding School will be transformed into a traditional German Brau Haus with long benches, steins, authentic cuisines and the sounds of a live Oompah band.

And following last year’s successful debut, Oktoberfest will be taking place over two weekends.

Walton Hall and Gardens will host the event on Friday, September 27, Saturday, September 28, Friday, October 4, and Saturday, October 5.

Cllr Tony Higgins, cabinet member for communities, culture and leisure, said: “I’m delighted that Oktoberfest is returning to Walton again, this time for an extended run.

“The team did an incredible job transforming the Old Riding School last year, which changed the space into a traditional German Brau Haus and brought a brilliant atmosphere.

“Whether you’re a long-time fan of Oktoberfest, or if you’ve never experienced it before, this is an event not to be missed, so make sure to get your tickets before they sell out!”
