Embracing Bavarian Culture at Thorpe Park’s Oktoberfest
Thorpe Park has once again transformed into a Bavarian wonderland this autumn, inviting visitors to immerse themselves in the spirit of Munich’s famous Oktoberfest.

All of these festive offerings are included with your park tickets, ensuring a memorable experience for all who attend.
A Taste of Germany at Thorpe Park
As you stroll through the park, you’ll have the opportunity to indulge in an array of German specialties that will transport your taste buds straight to Bavaria. From traditional sausages and pretzels to hearty stews and schnitzels, there’s something for every palate to enjoy. And of course, no Oktoberfest celebration would be complete without a stein (or two) of beer to wash it all down. Soak in the atmosphere as you sip on your cold, frothy brew and listen to the lively sounds of Bavarian beats that fill the air.
Thrilling Rides and Attractions
In addition to the Oktoberfest festivities, Thorpe Park offers an array of thrilling rides and attractions that are sure to get your adrenaline pumping. One of the highlights of the park is the brand-new rollercoaster, Hyperia, which opened earlier this year.
