Get Ready to Prost! Oktoberfest at The Penmar Returns with Ladyhosen

Campbell Wellman Penmar Venice Oktoberfest Event

TONIGHT (Friday, October 3rd), we're gearing up for an authentic Bavarian blowout as Oktoberfest (Weekend 2) returns to The Penmar Golf Course in Venice, hosted under their popular Sunset Sessions series. This event blends classic German tradition with the quintessential Venice vibe.

The Penmar is transforming its expansive outdoor space—the largest public greenspace on the Westside—into a true beer garden, complete with an Oktoberfest-style Beer Pavilion to house the fun. As a local gastro-clubhouse nestled on a nine-hole executive golf course, The Penmar is known for its casual, community-focused atmosphere, making it the perfect relaxed setting for the good times.

 

 

Entertainment: Ladyhosen is Cranking Out the Oompah

The main event for the evening is the sensational Ladyhosen, an all-woman, authentic Bavarian band that guarantees to keep the steins lifted and the lederhosen moving. Ladyhosen features four professional musicians, fronted by a real Bavarian vocalist, and utilizes the traditional instruments of the genre: accordion, tuba, and drums for that perfect polka feel, topped with dazzling yodeling.

Your GA ticket covers three full sets of their high-energy music, which ranges from:

  • Traditional Bavarian Hits: Authentic yodel songs, waltzes, and classic "oompah" tunes.

  • Dance Floor Staples: Including the essential "Chicken Dance" for a guaranteed crowd-pleaser.

  • Contemporary Twists: Ingenious Oktoberfest takes on Top 40 and contemporary hits, ensuring there's a tune for every taste.
