Austin Oktoberfest
Time: 11:00am - 7:00pm
Location: Austin
When: Friday, October 11
Oktoberfest has been Germany’s most famous celebration since 1812—so iconic it even has its own brew. Thanks to the German-Texan Heritage Society, Austin gets to experience it too. Enjoy German food, music, and plenty of Gemütlichkeit—that special German word for warmth and cheer—plus family-friendly fun like pumpkin painting and more.
