Join us for Oktoberfest at Thirsk Lodge Barns, bringing together live music from Back Chat Brass, Yorkshire-brewed beer from Cold Bath Brewing Co. and gourmet hot dogs from Peckish. Grab a stein, find a place around the table and settle in for a very good Sunday afternoon.
We thought Oktoberfest needed a brass band - so we brought in the big guns…
On Sunday 4th October, we’re bringing a little Oktoberfest spirit to Thirsk Lodge Barns, with an afternoon of good food, cold beer and live music.
Back Chat Brass will be joining us for the day, bringing the big tunes – and if you’re wondering what that might look like, have a watch.
Peckish will be on the gourmet hot dogs, Cold Bath Brewing Co. will be filling the steins and there’ll be plenty of room around the tables for everyone.
Sunday 4th October | 12–5pm
£15 per person, including food and a stein
Bring friends, bring the family and definitely bring an appetite.
