From October 9-11, the Hotel Nikko Saigon transformed into the ultimate Bavarian festival ground, where nearly 5,000 festival-goers raised their beer mugs together for three unforgettable nights. The grand finale in Ho Chi Minh City marked the highlight of this year’s Oktoberfest season, following vibrant celebrations in Hanoi and Danang.
Highlights of the Grand Finale
- Sold-Out Nights: Tickets for all three evenings in HCMC were completely sold out, making this one of the largest German cultural festivals in Southeast Asia.
- Authentic Bavarian Experience: Guests enjoyed 10,000 premium Erdinger beers, traditional German cuisine, lively Bavarian music, and a festive atmosphere.
- Special Milestones: This year’s Oktoberfest coincided with the 30th Anniversary of the German Business Association (GBA) and the 50th Anniversary of Germany–Vietnam diplomatic relations, giving the celebrations even deeper meaning.
- Vibrant Atmosphere: Laughter, music, and friendship filled the air as Vietnamese and international guests came together under one tent to celebrate cultural exchange and camaraderie.
Prost to the Future
With over 10,500 guests across Hanoi, Danang, and Ho Chi Minh City this year, the GBA Oktoberfest once again proved to be the biggest German cultural festival in Southeast Asia.
