Raise your stein and strike up the tuba! This jubilant Belgian poster for the 14th Wieze Oktoberfeesten bursts with festival spirit. Designed by artist R. Van Doren, it captures the cheerful chaos of beer season in full swing. A lederhosen-clad musician marches forward, his massive brass tuba gleaming in gold while he clutches an equally oversized mug of frothy beer, both exploding against a background of radiant yellow.
Held annually in the small town of Wieze, Belgium, the Oktoberfeesten became one of Europe’s most beloved beer festivals, rivaling even Munich’s in energy and attendance. Posters like this one were printed to promote the 1969 celebration, running from September 27 through October 12, and embody the postwar optimism and graphic humor that defined mid-century European poster design. The exaggerated proportions, bold typography, and joyful exaggeration make it impossible not to smile.
A true toast to Belgian brewing and design, this piece captures the lighthearted soul of the 1960s Oktoberfest era, when music, laughter, and lager came together under one jubilant tent.
