About this event

Get ready to raise your steins and don your dirndls, St. Alphonsus Oktoberfest is back and bringing a taste of Germany to the heart of Chicago! From September 25-27, this legendary 25th annual festival transforms the intersection of Lincoln/Southport/Wellington into a buzzing Bavarian beer hall, complete with live oompah bands, frothy brews, and mouthwatering bratwursts. Expect a weekend packed with German food, craft beer from local and international breweries, and nonstop entertainment, including stein-holding contests, polka dancing, and an epic Sunday "Kinderfest" for the little ones.
