Welcome to Habsburg Haus – Your Passport to an Authentic Oktoberfest Experience
Habsburg Haus, hosted at the Alpine Club, is a truly authentic Oktoberfest experience presented by the Alpine Club.
So You Think You Can Tanz is an event you SHOULD NOT MISS – the friendly competition which started out as a way to showcase each dance group from the local German Clubs and turned out to be the busiest night of the festival – at any club.
It is never to early to start planning your trip to Oktoberfest at the Habsburg Haus!
