The Marco Polo bierfest is back for 2018! This is the grandaddy of all the Oktoberfest celebrations in Hong Kong. Located at the car park of the Marco Polo Hongkong Hotel in TST, this celebration is not to be missed, with spectacular views of the Symphony of Lights show every evening at 8pm.

Get ready for a full band and Bavarian games, and they’ll have beer, pretzels and sausage plates galore. Included in the entry price is a glass of beer, but you’ll need to shell out for anything else you consume.

The popular Oktoberfest event starts on Wednesday, 17 October and runs until Saturday, 10 November. Get your tickets here!

Sunday–Thursday: $160, to include a glass of beer

Friday–Saturday: $250–280, to include a glass of beer and a Bierfest stein

King Ludwig Beerhall & Prost by King Ludwig

King Ludwig Beer Passport 2018 OktoberfestPhoto credit: King Ludwig Beerhall (Causeway Bay)

The King Ludwig “beer passport” is now on sale for $520 for 10 glasses (0.5L) of draught beer, featuring a great range of German beer, including light lagers, Bavarian wheat Weissbier and rich and roasted Dunkel. A fully redeemed beer passport can then be used as a $50 cash voucher for more beer or food.

Speaking of food, there is a special Oktoberfest menu, of course. Beer popcorn chicken with chilli and garlic dip ($55) and beer-marinated pork spare ribs ($65) are staying on topic, and there are a couple of other options – however, it seems like food may not be the main reason for a visit to King Ludwig’s palace.

There will also be an Oktoberfest “KEG” OFF party on Monday, 8 October at King Ludwig Beerhall (TST East) and an ongoing Oktoberfest party at King Ludwig in Stanley, TST and Hung Shui Kiu until 26 October.
