Menorcan beer brand Grahame Pearce organises three days of Oktoberfest in Ferreries

Menorcan beer brand Grahame Pearce is organising Oktoberfest Ferreries 2026, a festival that turns Ferreries into a meeting place for lovers of beer, music and street food this weekend. The celebration takes place over three days, from Friday 30 October to Sunday 1 November, with a programme combining musical performances, food trucks and a musical vermouth gathering.

With this initiative, Grahame Pearce brings the spirit of Oktoberfest to Menorca. Originating in Munich, Bavaria, Oktoberfest is one of the world's best-known beer celebrations. The Ferreries event adapts this tradition to Menorca's festive atmosphere, with music and informal dining taking centre stage.

The event also provides an opportunity to highlight Menorca's beer culture and the role of island brands in organising activities that bring energy to the social and gastronomic life of local towns.

Three days of live music

The programme began on Friday 30 October, with performances by Minorkings and Johnson Woo, during an opening session running from 6.30 pm until midnight.

On Saturday 31 October, the festival continues with Business and Powercranc, two bands providing the soundtrack to the second evening of Oktoberfest. The schedule will again run from 6.30 pm to midnight, offering music and a festive atmosphere throughout the evening.

The third day takes place on Sunday 1 November, All Saints' Day, with a musical vermouth gathering from 11.30 am to 4 pm. This lunchtime event will bring the celebration to a close in a more relaxed atmosphere, designed for sharing an aperitif and enjoying the festivities.

Beer and street food

Beer is one of the defining elements of Oktoberfest. The German festival has become an international reference point for beer culture, with a tradition combining drinks, gastronomy, music and social gatherings.

In Ferreries, Grahame Pearce's role as organiser creates a direct connection with Menorcan beer production. The initiative links an internationally inspired celebration with an island brand, at a time when local products are gaining prominence in gastronomic experiences.

The programme also includes food trucks, a dining format particularly well suited to this type of event. The opportunity to enjoy informal food without interrupting the musical performances helps create a meeting place for friends, families and visitors.

Bringing life to the autumn season

Oktoberfest Ferreries coincides with the All Saints' Day weekend, when Menorca moves fully into the quieter tourist season and activities aimed at local residents become particularly important.

Events of this kind help maintain activity in the island's towns during autumn, combining leisure, musical culture and gastronomy.

With three days of celebrations, four musical groups, food trucks and a closing vermouth gathering, Grahame Pearce is backing an Oktoberfest with a distinctly Menorcan character, inviting everyone to share in beer culture and enjoy the festive atmosphere of Ferreries.
