Oktoberfest: Howell's Grooving Castle

Get ready for a night of irresistible soul, blues, and funk as Howell’s Grooving Castle take the stage! This 8-piece band delivers a sound that’s equal parts soulful bliss and hard-hitting groove, fronted by the incredible Alice Maffs. Expect a mix of stunning originals and Hammond-driven feel-good covers that will lift you straight into the weekend.

To make the night even better, Pasture will be firing up a Bavarian-style BBQ alongside their full Oktoberfest feast. Pair it with a pint (or two) of Festbier, and you’ve got the perfect recipe for music, food, and celebration.
