We're excited to be joined by India Anderson (tuba) and Gee Rabe (accordion) of Ladyhosen for POPtoberfest! Together with our phenomenal cast of singers, the ensemble will be playing some of everyone's favorite Oktoberfest hits like "Ein Prosit der Gemütlichkeit," "Liechtensteiner Polka," and more! If you're looking for THE authentic Bavarian experience in L.A., we've got you covered!
& L.A. Donauschwaben!
Founded in 1952, this group is dedicated to promoting the culture and history of the Danube Swabians, a German-speaking ethnic group originally from the Danube River valley region in modern-day Hungary. After WWII, many Danube Swabians immigrated to the Americas, bringing with them their rich cultural traditions. While the Danube Swabian culture isn't directly tied to the Bavarian roots of Oktoberfest, POPtoberfest celebrates a wide range of Germanic traditions. Their performance will add to the vibrant cultural tapestry of the event, offering a unique glimpse into the diversity within Germanic heritage.
