.Zurich Oktoberfest at Bauschänzli & Züri-Wiesn HB
Where to Celebrate Oktoberfest in Zurich
There are many places to celebrate Oktoberfest, but there are two main ones which are very well known. Züri-Wiesn is located at the main train station and Bauschänzli is situated on the little island next to the Frauenbadi at the top of the Limmat.
Each year the “Züri-Wiesn” Oktoberfest begins first at the main station and then there is a little overlap whilst they are both running. Bauschänzli then continues until the beginning of November. Both venues have plenty of food, fun, music and of course, beer, to ensure you have a great time. It’s a great opportunity to get dressed up in Dirndl and Lederhosen but it’s not compulsory!
Züri-Wiesn Oktoberfest
Dates: 22nd September – 14th October 2023
You can’t miss Züri Wiesn if you travel through Zurich main station as it all takes place in a massive beer tent in the middle of the main station hall. It’s on until 14th October and is a fun place to celebrate Oktoberfest in Zurich. As well as beer there are lots of typical Bavarian food specialities and even some vegetarian options too. You don’t have to drink beer but it helps! It will be opened this year by Hoppers Legend, Ricardo Cabanas.
