Oktoberfest (Hong Kong)The Oktoberfest in Hong Kong was started in 1991. It is celebrated in late October and early November (dry season in Hong Kong) and is held on the 6th floor of the carpark of the Marco Polo Hong Kong Hotel in Tsim Sha Tsui, Hong Kong, just next to the Star Ferry pier. The festival is held in a traditional tent with a capacity of approximately 1,500 persons. The German Band Die Notenhobler from Ulm, Germany entertains the approximately 85% Chinese audience. Their program starts at 19:30 every night and is compromised by three parts: traditional German music, games and competitions, party music. The hotels caters traditional Southern German foods, such as pork knuckle, sausages with sauerkraut and apple strudel together with beer (1991-1999 Loewenbraeu; 2000-2002 Veltins; 2003 Jever). In 2003 the festival is held from October 24 to November 9 (public) and until November 16 for private functions, which is popular with large cooperations' staff parties. External links
