Bust out the lederhosen and dust off the dirndl, Oktoberfest is back - and Rouse Hill will host a weekend of special celebrations.

The Bavarian Rouse Hill will host an Oktoberfest party on Saturday, October 13 from midday with an oompah band, and prizes to be won in various competitions from stein-holding to yodelling and sausage eating to best dressed.

On Sunday, October 14, the celebrations are geared towards families with free face painting and balloon twisting, a pretzel pinata and pretzel decorating.

Cheers: The Bavarian’s Roman Haslinger is originally from Munich and knows a thing or two about biers.

Children under the age of 12 can also eat free from the children’s menu with a paying adult.

The weekend of festivities forms part of The Bavarian’s six-week Oktoberfest celebrations, which runs until October 28.

The Bavarian has doned full Oktoberfest regalia, including drapes, flags and bunting.

Alongside the usual offerings, the menu will include three and four course banquets, as well as five limited edition Oktoberfest brews on rotation, the very same that will be swilled at the official festival in Munich.
