📍 Fremont, Seattle
There’s a slight chill in the air, which means a big thing is coming to the “Center of the Universe”—the Fremont Oktoberfest. For over 20 years during late September, a portion of Fremont transforms into a tiny piece of Bavaria to celebrate the high German holiday of Oktoberfest.
Billed as Seattle’s largest beer festival, over 30 breweries will be onsite to serve up over 100 of their best and tastiest craft lagers, ales, IPAs, stouts, and more on tap. And for those who love commemorative gifts, both general admission and premium admission will receive a 5-ounce commemorative mug. A general admission ticket gets you five tasting tokens (if you get premium, up to ten). You exchange those tokens like money for five fill-ups of your mini mug. If that’s not enough, you can purchase full-liter steins or boots for $25 (with $15 refills).
In addition to beer, there will be lots of programming for your buzzed pleasure: a Stein Hoisting competition, where drinkers are challenged to hold a heavy stein for as long as possible; a Texas Chainsaw Pumpkin Carving Contest, which is exactly what it sounds like; and Dogtoberfest on Sunday where fest attendees can pick up swag for their doggos. DJs and food, like German pretzels and Ziegler’s bratwurst, will also be at the Tasting Garden. Please don lederhosen if you so please! It goes without saying, please drink responsibly.
