GBA Oktoberfest Vietnam returns for 34th annual celebration

The 34th annual GBA Oktoberfest Vietnam is set to take place across three major cities: Ho Chi Minh City, Da Nang, and Hanoi. Organized by the German Business Association (GBA), the festival has been held in Vietnam since 1992 and serves as a cultural bridge between the German and Vietnamese communities.

The event will feature authentic Bavarian elements, including German beer, traditional cuisine, and live music performances by groups such as O’zapft. In Ho Chi Minh City, the festival runs from September 24 to 26; in Da Nang, from October 2 to 3; and in Hanoi, from October 8 to 10 at the JW Marriott Hotel.

Alexander Ziehe, Chairman of the German Business Association in Vietnam, stated that the festival is more than just a celebration, acting as a vital link for businesses, partners, and friends to foster meaningful relationships while experiencing German traditions.
