After a sweltering summer in Cambridge, we are hoping for an Indian summer to take us right through to October. There is so much happening across the city this month for everyone to enjoy. 

Cambridge Oktoberfest - Jesus Green - 30th August - 2nd September

Authentic German beer and food needs to be part of Oktoberfest. Cambridge Oktoberfest is about much more than German beer!

Over one long weekend you can experience everything that makes a real Oktoberfest. We’ll have live music, full Oktoberfest decoration. Setting up a giant tent for 2,000 people, we will bring you the feeling of being in an authentic Oktoberfest Tent in the middle of Cambridge.

Cambridge Dragon Boat Festival - Saturday 8th September

Citystay Dragonboat Festival

Dragon boat racing is an ancient Chinese tradition and the fastest growing water activity in Britain today – as well as the most fun! Up to 10 people paddle each 30’ boat with a drummer at the front beating time and the helm at the tail steering a straight course.

The Festival is open to everyone and over 40 crews are expected to battle it out over the 200m race course, watched by several hundred spectators. The Ditton Meadows location offers a superb venue for racing and a fabulous day is guaranteed with plenty of bankside family entertainment including funfair rides, children’s activities, inflatables and Chinese lion dancing plus bar and food stalls.
