A brand new Alton Towers Oktoberfest video has been released ahead of next week’s introduction of the first ever Oktoberfest at the park.
Tuck into bratwurst in pretzel buns, luxury chocolates, lebkuchen biscuits and giant toasted marshmallows at the first ever Alton Towers Oktoberfest!
Taking place throughout September more than 150,000 traditional Bratwurst sausages, 3,000 gallons of ice cream, over a quarter of a million traditional Belgian chocolates and 200,000 giant marshmallows are set to arrive at the Resort.
Lederhosen-clad dancers and cosy fire pits will be dotted around the front lawn to help transform the Theme Park into a Bavarian wonderland.
As well as the more traditional smoked Bratwurst, Currywurst in pretzel bread will also be served from a traditional Schwenkgrill. Giant toasted marshmallows, speciality coffees, flavoured hot chocolates and Gluhwein (mulled wine) are also amongst the tantalising treats on offer as guest enjoy festivities each day, from 3pm, September 11th to October 4th.

By teaming up with Spaten beer, the Theme Park will also offer this classic German Helles premium lager. Brewed in Munich and known for its light, crisp taste and golden colour, it offers a full rounded body of malty sweetness, balanced by delicate hop flavours and aromas. A small selection of traditional English beers will also be served.
Two stages for live performances from the acts including the foot-stomping German Jukebox and a host of other live musicians, as well as street performances by Bavarian dancers and an Alpine horn player will be included.
In the video above social distancing measures are also outlined so that families and friends can focus on enjoying the food, festivities and fun.
Oktoberfest is the first event of its kind to be staged at the Resort as part of the 40th anniversary season of celebration. In addition to the live acts, delicious food and drinks, guests will have the chance to enjoy the park’s world-class rollercoasters and family attractions into the evening (8pm on weekends).
Furthermore, guests will be able to enjoy Oktoberfest’s atmosphere and entertainment within the price of a theme park ticket. (Pre-booking tickets for the theme park will be essential.)

Simon Allen, Entertainment Manager at Alton Towers Resort, said:
“Oktoberfest has grown a small folk festival in Munich to a hugely popular event that’s now celebrated around the world, including at some of our sister parks in Europe. It brings together a great mix of rollercoasters, live entertainment and fabulous food and drink, and we’re thrilled to be hosting the event for the first time at Alton Towers in our 40th birthday year. Plans are well under way, including plenty of social distancing measures, and there’ll be so much for guests to enjoy. We can’t wait for next Friday for the event to begin!”
