As part of Park Place Lodge’s popular Oktoberfest event this upcoming October 1-6, the Pub is again hosting a Pub’toberfest party with live music from L8.

Enjoy Oompah-Accordian-Laden Rock combined with tasty food specials like giant pretzels, schnitzel and bratwurst plus our own special FBC Pubtoberfest Beer.

Originally started in 2007 by Franz Grasegger (accordion, vocals – pictured above), Pat Hess (guitar, vocals), Dwayne Diakiw (bass, vocals) and George Blisner (shakers), L8 is looking forward to providing another fun night of music and yodeling in Fernie.

Now hailing from the Columbia Valley, the band has played music together since childhood in different bands all across Canada, USA and Europe. Each member of the band brings a unique musical background from country to rock. With Franz’s German roots, even Polka, Irish and Folk is brought into the mix giving L8 a very unique sound, which touches all ages.

The Pub’toberfest Party will also feature, a yodeling contest, one litre steins of beer, giveaways and prizes.
