Elevated celebration of Bavarian flavours, music, and festivity at The Podium

Cinnamon Life at City of Dreams is set to introduce a new addition to Colombo’s entertainment scene with the city’s first-ever Rooftop Oktoberfest. Taking place from 16 to 19 October at The Podium, the four-day festival will bring together Bavarian food, music, and culture against the backdrop of panoramic city views.

The highlight of the event will be Colombo’s largest Oktoberfest buffet, featuring authentic German specialties. Guests can look forward to hearty favourites such as Sauerbraten (roasted beef marinated with red wine vinegar), Schweinshaxe (crispy pork knuckle), Brathähnchen (roast chicken), Leberkäse (grilled meatloaf), and a wide selection of German sausages including Bratwurst, Weisswurst, and Cheese Krainer. Traditional accompaniments such as sauerkraut, sautéed potatoes, and mustard sauce will complete the feast. Classic appetisers like pretzels, German potato salad, and Obatza (a spiced Camembert cheese dip) will set the tone, while Apfelstrudel with ice cream or Rote Grütze (red fruit jelly custard) will round off the meal on a sweet note.

Adding to the festive spirit, a strong music line-up will keep the energy alive each evening. Local favourites including Slipping Chairs, Magic Box Mixup, Section 8, OIC, and Pop Culture will perform live, creating the perfect atmosphere for a night of dancing and celebration.

For those seeking an unforgettable night of great food, lively music, and spectacular city views, Cinnamon Life’s rooftop Oktoberfest promises an unparalleled experience.

Tickets are priced at Rs. 8,900 nett per person, inclusive of buffet access and live entertainment.
