Shanghai's German Industry and Commerce Office is sponsoring a tent at this year's Kunshan Beer Festival that kicks off on the 18th. The Bräugaudi tent is inspired by Munich's Oktoberfest, and is kitted out with all the essentials - a band, Bavarian decorations, traditional German food and - of course - plenty of beer.

Individual entrance tickets get you a 0.5l Erdinger, 0.5l Bräugaudi Bier and two snacks, but don't guarantee you a seat. Get some friends together and splash out on an Emperor Table, available for four or eight people. Each person gets two 0.5l Erdingers, one 0.5l Bräugaudi Bier and a set dinner. 

All tickets include entrance to the rest of the Kunshan Beer Festival. Shuttle buses will be laid on to transport guests from People's Square out to Kunshan. Get the details at www.braugaudi.com.
