Ortigas is about to get a Bavarian makeover. On Saturday, Sept. 20, The Podium Hall will host its very first Oktoberfest celebration—a night of authentic German food, free-flowing premium beer, and live entertainment, brought to Manila by Brotzeit Philippines.
The one-night-only event named “Oktoberfest at The Podium” kicks off at 6 p.m. at The Podium Hall, Level 6, and promises an unforgettable Bavarian feast. Guests can look forward to unlimited pours of Weihenstephaner Festbier and Paulaner Oktoberfest Bier—both brewed exclusively for the season—alongside overflowing platters of classic German dishes.
Oktoberfest wouldn’t be complete without hearty fare, and Brotzeit is pulling out all the stops. The menu features Bavarian favorites designed for sharing with friends and family. Diners can snack on Brezn, the classic Bavarian pretzel (₱140), or indulge in Überbackene “Flammkuchen” Brezn (₱180), pretzels gratinated with caramelized onions, cheese, bacon, and caraway seeds. For sausage lovers, the Bayrische Weisswurst (₱390) pairs veal sausage with a pretzel, while the Regensburger Bierwurst (₱480) offers smoked pork and beef sausages with bacon sauerkraut and mashed potatoes.
For larger appetites, Brotzeit serves the Metzger Pfanne (₱780), a plate of pork belly, Regensburger sausage, bacon sauerkraut, dumplings, and onion sauce, or Knusprige Schweinbauch (₱950), crispy roasted pork belly with mustard gravy. The Zwiebelrostbraten (₱1,650) features Black Angus beef striploin with fried onions, potatoes, and beans, while Wiesen Hendl (₱520) offers golden fried chicken leg quarter with potato cucumber salad and cranberry sauce. The showstopper is the Oktoberfest 2025 Wiesen Platte (₱3,850), a massive sharing platter of pork knuckle, crispy pork belly, fried chicken, sausages, and sauerkraut. Each dish is meant to be enjoyed with seasonal Oktoberfest brews—malty, smooth, and stronger than the usual pint.
No Oktoberfest is complete without lively entertainment. The Podium’s bash will be hosted by DJ Tony Toni, with beats by DJ Tom Suplico and Christian Tiu, plus a high-energy performance by Anton Showband from Austria. Guests can also join games like the Stein Holding Contest and the Beer Guzzler Challenge, with prizes up for grabs.
Tickets are priced at ₱3,600 for a single pass or ₱25,000 for a group package good for eight with one table.
While the Sept. 20 celebration is the season’s highlight, Brotzeit is extending Oktoberfest across its branches from Sept. 7 to Nov. 10, 2025. Expect festive décor, Bavarian weekend games, and specialty menus at Brotzeit BGC, Alabang West Parade, and The Podium branch.
