Get ready to shout “Prost!” as The Standard, Huruvalhi Maldives, joins in Oktoberfest celebrations honouring German cuisine and fine craft beers with week-long festivities on 21 – 29 September 2024. This year, the resort has brewed up some hoppy specials to keep holidaymakers buzzing and brimming with joy between refreshing dives and relaxing spa treatments.

The frothy festivities kick off on the morning of 21 September at the resort’s mobile beer bar, where easy-drinking brews will flow freely alongside popular Oktoberfest fare. Serving everything from bratwurst and weisswurst to sizzling sausages, juicy burgers, hot dogs and homemade pretzels, the beachside Cookout Station will have everyone happily feasting away as they soak up the scene to mellow beats of DJ Adrian. In the afternoon, the sporty crowd will have Todis Beach to themselves, with competitive games and a photo booth to celebrate the champions. 

The following day, BBQ Shak will be transformed into a Biergarten for a carefree celebration of good times, great food and even better company. As DJ Adrian spins his sun-soaked tunes, guests can sip on an array of beers from every corner of the world: golden lagers, rich stouts and crisp IPAs, paired perfectly with the mouthwatering canapés and bar snacks. Later in the evening, chefs will be serving a special menu of plant-based burgers and sausages for a healthful celebration, all set against the backdrop of DJ beats and a cosy bonfire.

Wrapping up the week is the Silent Disco on 25 September, where two DJs spin simultaneously as guests dance to their heart’s content, wearing high-fidelity headphones and grooving to a soundtrack that resonates with them. Keeping the party going is the “Buzz Worthy” promotion (running until 6 October), with a bucket of four beers and six sizzling sausage skewers available for just $36 at all the venues. On 27 and 29 September, the vibrant Shop & Win Weekend Market at Joos Café is a chance to snag a bargain from the resort’s retail store and get a free massage while sipping on special cocktails.

Enjoy a 5-night stay and get up to 40% off rooms with free seaplane transfers for 2 adults and extra perks when you Stowaway at the resort.
