There is less than a month left until Juanjo and Naiara’s opening speech kicks off the Fiestas del Pilar 2024 in Zaragoza, until the street parties and concerts bring the Zity Space to life and until we share beers and memories at the long-awaited Oktoberfest at the Amusement Park and Valdespartera. Precisely to make the wait more pleasant, tickets for this beer festival at the Zaragoza fairgrounds are now on sale.
The Valdespartera Oktoberfest will be held from Friday 4th October to Sunday 20th. During these two weeks, this venue will bring a part of Germany to Zaragoza with a wide selection of beers, food and music. And throughout the evening, attendees will be able to enjoy an orchestra that will play traditional German music, creating an authentic and festive atmosphere. Later, a DJ will take control of the dance floor to continue the night to the rhythm of the latest music.
With this latest innovation and as a prelude to the big festivals in Zaragoza, the city is warming up its engines to enjoy the Oktoberfest, an event that has already managed to establish itself as a tradition during the Fiestas del Pilar and that attracts thousands of people to immerse themselves in the festive atmosphere surrounding this popular drink.
TICKETS AND PRICES
Entry to the Valdespartera Oktoberfest is free except on October 4, 5, 11 and 12, and attendees can enjoy special discounts, such as a 50% discount on food and a 20% discount on beer . However, if you want to guarantee access or skip the line, tickets can be purchased on the venue’s official website for a price of 20 euros. This ticket includes a liter of beer.
In addition, as a novelty this year, a VIP area is being opened as an independent space in the venue. This package costs 60 euros and includes table service, a litre of beer, half a portion of chips, a sausage of your choice, half a knuckle or ribs and a dessert.

PAYMENT WITH CONTACTLESS BRACELETS, THE LATEST NEWS FROM OKTOBERFEST
