Tempting. Went to it twice when they held it on the Cricket Ground by County Ground, awesome beers, good food, music and all in all a decent night.

Title: Re: Oktoberfest Swindon Post by: Jimmy HaveHave on Tuesday, July 13, 2021, 16:51:08 Is £15 just for admission only
Title: Re: Oktoberfest Swindon Post by: Sippo on Tuesday, July 13, 2021, 16:51:36 Been asked if they sell other drinks other than beer... I presume they would.
Title: Re: Oktoberfest Swindon Post by: Batch on Tuesday, July 13, 2021, 16:53:57 Quote from: Jimmy Quinn Is £15 just for admission only yes. no beer included Title: Re: Oktoberfest Swindon Post by: Jimmy HaveHave on Tuesday, July 13, 2021, 16:56:55 Cheers Batch, what would you expect to pay for various types of drinks
Title: Re: Oktoberfest Swindon Post by: Batch on Tuesday, July 13, 2021, 17:02:04 struggling to remember. they did 2 pint steins. it's all a bit hazy.
Title: Re: Oktoberfest Swindon Post by: Jimmy HaveHave on Tuesday, July 13, 2021, 17:02:56 Mind you I wouldn't want many of them 😀
Title: Re: Oktoberfest Swindon Post by: Batch on Tuesday, July 13, 2021, 17:59:28 right, we think beer prices were about 11-12ish for a 2 pint stein. a few more pounds if you a souvenir plastic stein to take home (1st drink only, obvs)
can only remeber beer, cider and soft drinks on sale, but don't quote us on that Title: Re: Oktoberfest Swindon Post by: RobertT on Tuesday, July 13, 2021, 18:46:19 https://www.swindonadvertiser.co.uk/news/19436082.oktoberfest-90s-festival-coming-gwr-park/

Title: Re: Oktoberfest Swindon Post by: Sippo on Friday, October 29, 2021, 20:20:47 I have two spare tickets for evening if anyone is interested?
Title: Oktoberfest Swindon Post by: Batch on Saturday, October 30, 2021, 08:05:24 may have 4 tickets for free tonight if nobody chains them elsewhere - seating
let me know if they are any use, no charge. I'll let you know after 12:30 Title: Re: Oktoberfest Swindon Post by: Sippo on Saturday, October 30, 2021, 21:41:56 It was ok. Only stayed two hours. £12 for a 2 Pinter. Too many drunkards. God knows how they got in, but to be fair bouncers were on it. Not somewhere I would take the wife.
Bands were good. Title: Re: Oktoberfest Swindon Post by: Samdy Gray on Sunday, October 31, 2021, 07:40:22 A few blokes in lederhosen turned up at Biplob about 6.30pm absolutely smashed. They managed a round of beers and some poppadums before being asked to leave. The waiter had a pint spilt over him as they left, poor guy.
Title: Re: Oktoberfest Swindon Post by: Sippo on Sunday, October 31, 2021, 09:05:32 There were way too many that had loads. Like I said, it was ok but not my cup of tea. Maybe if I was 20...
Title: Re: Oktoberfest Swindon Post by: Batch on Sunday, October 31, 2021, 12:01:35 last year was a good laugh, though I agree it was expensive on beer.
Shame it sounds like this was shit |
