This year, Newport World Resorts brings Bavaria closer to Manila with the grandest Oktoberfest yet, running from October 8 to 11, 2025 at The Ballroom, Hilton Manila Newport World Resorts. The four-day festival offers guests a chance to immerse themselves in the traditions of Munich while enjoying the signature hospitality of the Philippines’ premier lifestyle and entertainment destination.
For more than two centuries, Oktoberfest has stood as one of the world’s most celebrated traditions. It is the clinking of steins at long wooden tables, the hum of brass bands filling the night air, and the rich aroma of roasted pork knuckle that calls on a sea of revelers. More than a feast of beer and food, Oktoberfest has become a global symbol of camaraderie and joy.
For the first time, Oktoberfest at Newport World Resorts will feature a buffet-style spread, allowing guests to explore and enjoy an even wider variety of Bavarian dishes at their own pace. Platters of warm pretzels and rye bread paired with savory dips welcome guests, followed by spreads of sausages, sauerkraut, schnitzel, and the famed crispy pork knuckle with its golden crackling. Classic sides such as Spaetzle and braised red cabbage bring balance to the hearty fare, before desserts like apple strudel, Kaiserschmarrn, and jam-filled Krapfen provide a sweet finish.
Beer flows fresh from the tap with Weihenstephan, the world’s oldest brewery, taking center stage. Weissbier and Lager are served on draft, and dark beer by the bottle. With nearly a thousand years of brewing history, Weihenstephan embodies the very heart of Bavarian beer culture, making every pour a celebration in itself.
No Oktoberfest is complete without music, and returning once again for the festivities is the Anton Showband from Austria. Their lively performances bring the unmistakable sound of Oktoberfest to Manila, filling the ballroom with songs, sing-alongs, and crowd favorite shenanigans that guarantee an evening of cheer. Traditional games and raffle prizes keep the spirits high, with cheers echoing as guests test their strength in stein-holding contests or race through beer-chugging challenges.
