Oktoberfest of Blumenau
If you're ready to feel the German spirit in the heart of Brazil, we'll pick you up from your hotel in Florianópolis at the agreed-upon time and head to Blumenau on a two-hour drive.
Upon arrival, we'll take a guided tour of Blumenau. For 30 minutes, we'll stroll through the city's historic center, dominated by numerous buildings of traditional German architecture.
From this point on, the experience will vary depending on the day of the week selected:
- Wednesdays (departure at 3 pm and return at 1 am): you'll have the afternoon and evening to fully enjoy the festivities in Vila Germânica Park. You'll also have the opportunity to witness the traditional Oktoberfest parade at 7 pm (October 7, 14, and 21), one of the most spectacular moments of the day trip.
- Saturdays (departure at 8 am and return at 6 pm): a daytime tour where you can witness the traditional parade at 4 pm (October 10, 17, and 24) and explore the pavilions of Vila Germânica before beginning your return journey.
- Sundays (departure at 7 am and return at 7 pm): a morning tour focusing on the cultural and exhibition aspects. We'll visit the pavilions of Vila Germânica to learn about the impressive structure and setup of the festival. There is no parade on Sundays, and the tour ends before the evening festivities begin.
After completing our visit in Blumenau, we'll begin our return journey to the hotels in Florianópolis.
