This October, Happy Wednesday is bringing a taste of Bavaria to the city with the return of Oktoberfest and Beerfest, transforming Happy Valley Racecourse into three consecutive mid-weeks of racing, live entertainment, festive food, and German-inspired celebrations. The festival series kicks off with Oktoberfest on Oct. 7, 2026, followed by Beerfest on Oct. 14 and 21, 2026.

The opening night begins with a special ceremony led by Dr. Annika Bolten-Drutschmann, Consul General of Germany to Hong Kong and Macau, and Winfried Engelbrecht-Bresges, Chief Executive Officer of The Hong Kong Jockey Club. Guests can then head to the Beer Garden, where acclaimed German folk band Die Notenhobler and Oktoberfest dancers will bring the sights and sounds of Germany's iconic festival to life.

The festivities continue on Oct. 14 with a performance by crowd-favorite Phil D and Joanna, while powerhouse vocalist MsLolo takes the stage on Oct. 21 for the series finale.

Alongside the racing and live music, racegoers can join the returning Beer Tasting Challenge for a chance to win prizes and explore Bavarian-themed photo installations throughout the Beer Garden. German favorites such as Roasted Pork Knuckle, German Pretzels, and Sauerbraten will be served alongside classic brews including Löwenbräu, Paulaner, and Erdinger.

The celebrations also extend across the racecourse, with venues including The Beat, Vantage, Keiba, The Gallery, Stable Bend Terrace, and Leading Edge offering additional dining and entertainment throughout the night. Don't miss out!
