TOPS at SPAR Bierfest Announces More Fest Klaus Entertainment for the 2016 Tour
It\u2019s no coincidence that in the world of beer, good things come in sixes. It\u2019s why we have the six-pack and why the TOPS at SPAR Bierfest celebrates its sixth year in existence as SA\u2019s favourite proudly national annual touring festival of Bavarian bier culture!<\/p>\n

With a refreshed festival layout and a richly expanded entertainment programme, TOPS at SPAR Bierfest 2016 invites you to get in touch with your inner Germaniac, lug on the lederhosen, dust off the dirndls and get ready to party with added oompah at the Newlands Brewery, Village Green, from the 4 – 6 November.<\/p>\n

Since inception in 2010, the TOPS at SPAR Bierfest has delivered South Africans a taste of the Munich Oktoberfest right to their doorsteps. The country\u2019s biggest annual, national touring festival of Bavarian bier culture revels in all that is good about bier, bratwursts, pretzels, frauleins and of course \u2013 the music they call \u201coompah!\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cIn 2016, as we mark our sixth year of being SA\u2019s favourite bierfest, we thought it was time to shake things up!\u201d comments Bierfest owner, Andrew Douglas. \u201cWe are revising the layout of our big beautiful brauhaus to give patrons a more natural flow from the outside areas which lends itself to a revamp of the live music aspect of the event.\u201d<\/p>\n

While the traditional oompah music remains a staple, giving the authentic Oktoberfest vibe, an exciting development will see the inclusion of South Africa\u2019s most-loved mock rock mash-up band \u2013 The Rockerfellas! Utilising the concept of the musical \u201cmash-up\u201d made famous by DJs and dance music producers, this five-piece band of merry musicians seamlessly blends the biggest hits of the 70\u2019s, 80\u2019s and 90\u2019s till now into a musical medley of mirth that no one can help but dance to!<\/p>\n

But it\u2019s not just live music that bier lovers can look forward to at the TOPS at SPAR Bierfest, the Brauhaus hours are filled with opportunities for audience participation where traditional Bavarian bierfest activities are the name of the game and where amazing prizes can be won, including a chance to win a trip to the actual Oktoberfest in Munich 2017.<\/p>\n

Whether it\u2019s testing your stamina in Mass heben, refining your dress-up skills for the Best Dressed, partaking in the giant Snufftabakkanon (a short sharp dose of Bavarian snuff tobacco administered nasally) OR milking a life size imported  Bavarian cow against the clock, attending the TOPS at SPAR Bierfest will ask more of you than just showing off an ability to drink our craft beers by the litre and dine from platters of succulent Bavarian cuisine.<\/p>\n

As with all its events, the TOPS at SPAR Bierfest supports responsible drinking and will have a range of options on hand to make getting home safe after a few drinks the most hassle-free and affordable experience it can be. #DrinkSmart!<\/p>\n
