Fest with us as we join forces with the Alpine club to present: HABSBURG HAUS. Habsburg Haus brings together a truly authentic Oktoberfest experience
https://alpineclub.ca/habsburghauskw/
For SIX days, you can fest and reunite with your friends and family for an Oktoberfest you don’t want to miss out on.
Our kitchen will be serving up our tasty and popular meals including schnitzel, sausage, cabbage rolls and other mouth-watering traditional options. New this year is the regular addition of Transylvania Club pig tails. As is tradition, one item you won’t want to miss is the apple strudel – handmade by Alpine Club members.
Be entertained by the music of Wildbahn as well as performances from our own Alpine Dancers and Transylvania Club Dancers as well as a variety of other dance groups throughout the festival.
Family Day is on the Thanksgiving Monday – bring out the family, kids, even grandkids – enjoy some fun and food, and treat the kids to balloon animals or face-painting while you catch up with friends.
Again, an event you should not miss is So You Think You Can Tanz – the friendly competition which started out as a way to showcase each dance group from the local German Clubs and turned out to be the busiest night of the festival – at any club.
Be sure to get your tickets early for any of our events. It is never to early to start planning your trip to Oktoberfest at the Habsburg Haus.
