You don’t have to be in Munich to enjoy one of Autumn’s most festive celebrations. The VILA VITA Biergarten, a traditional German restaurant in Porches, is once again celebrating the season with an Oktoberfest in the Algarve from 24 September to 5 October. (Please note specific dates below.)
The Biergarten is a little piece of Deutschland in the western Algarve. This Bavarian-style beer garden has spacious seating inside and out, with beer maids wearing dirndls, colorful murals depicting Bavarian life and even a maypole. Doors open at 17:00. An authentic “oom-pah” band, flown in for the festival, plays nightly starting at 19:00.
Plenty of Erdinger beer, from one of Germany’s favorite breweries, is on tap, as well as locally-brewed artisan beer Porches Pilsner.
Families are welcome. There’s a children’s play area in the gardens.
The Biergarten is off the EN 125 at the Porches roundabout. For more information, visit the Oktoberfest Algarve page on the VILA VITA Parc website.
