Frisco Oktoberfest

When is the Frisco Oktoberfest?

Festivities are taking place Saturday, October 1st, 2022 from 11am-10pm

Why is Oktoberfest in September?

Although this year it does fall right at the beginning of October, typically you’ll find Oktoberfest occurring in September.

It began with the Royal Wedding of Crown Prince Ludwig (later KingLudwig) to Princess Therese on October 12, 1810. Five days after the marriage, a large festival was held in front of one of the gates leading to Munich. That festival became an annual celebration and Oktoberfest was born.

In Munich, Oktoberfest begins in September and lasts for 16 days. It always finishes on the first Sunday in October.

 

Will there be music?

Absolutely! Enjoy two stages filled with German themed music and dancing on both days!

Frisco Oktoberfest Activities

Enjoy relaxing in the biergarten, browsing the local businesses and artisan vendors, participating in Oktoberfest games, dancing to the music and enjoying delicious bier and cuisine.

🍺 Oktoberfest Games include: Dachshund Dash, Bier stein hoisting contests, brat eating contests, keg rolling and stein relays!

A notable event, especially for Dog Moms is that the Frisco Oktoberfest will feature a Dachshund Dash. These weiner dog races are the cutest thing to watch!
