Oktoberfest at Alton Towers Resort: A Fusion of Bavarian Tradition and English Amusement

Alton Towers Resort in Staffordshire, renowned for its impressive array of amusement attractions, has a special surprise for its visitors this year. Integrating Oktoberfest, a centuries-old Bavarian tradition, into the park's entertainment agenda marks a highlight in the resort's history.

Bavarian Tradition in a British Setting

When one thinks of Oktoberfest, many surely imagine sprawling tent rows where liters of beer are served, accompanied by traditional Bavarian melodies. At Alton Towers Resort, this vision gains an additional dimension: adrenaline rushes on world-class roller coasters with a Bavarian twist. The combination promises a unique experience appealing to both amusement park enthusiasts and aficionados of German culture.

For visitors opting for the Oktoberfest offer, the resort has a special promotion: when booking a short break, entrance for the second day of Oktoberfest is free of charge. Such an initiative provides guests not just with a financial incentive, but also the chance to fully embrace both the festival and the park's offerings.

As Shadows Fall: The Scarefest

With the onset of autumn, Alton Towers Resort is also gearing up for another major event – the Scarefest. This annually held event, taking place between the 7th, 8th, and 13th to 31st of October, is famed for its extensive spooky entertainment lineup.

In the past, Scarefest has attracted numerous visitors drawn to the thrill of eerie mazes and dark rides. In addition to the classic attractions, which exude a different ambiance at night, a range of live entertainment suitable for all age groups is provided. From family-friendly activities to award-winning spooky experiences, the event caters to every taste.

Concluding Thoughts

Alton Towers Resort continues to uphold its reputation as an innovator in the amusement park industry. Incorporating Oktoberfest into the resort's autumnal program is proof of the ongoing drive to push the boundaries of the conventional amusement park experience and offer visitors fresh and unique experiences.

While Oktoberfest spotlights Bavarian culture and tradition, Scarefest provides the adrenaline fix many visitors seek. Both events promise to captivate both regulars and first-time visitors, gifting them unforgettable memories. A visit to Alton Towers Resort this season thus promises not just fun and entertainment, but also cultural enrichment and thrills.
