And while the traditional home of the annual festival of beer is Munich, the celebrations extend the world over, including in Orange.

Among those gearing up to celebrate is The Orange Ex-Services' Club.

The Greenhouse has a huge one-day Oktoberfest event planned for Saturday, running 11-3pm.

The venue will turn its Coral Sea Auditorium into a Bavarian beer hall for the day.

German brews from local breweries will be on tap, as well delicious delicacies from the region.

The Oktoberfest party will kick off with an Oom-Pah-Pah band, the chicken dance and a range of Bavarian games.

Tickets are $25 and available through 123tix.com.au

This is an 18-years or older event.
