Old Town Oktoberfest

Raise a Stein in Chicago’s First German Neighborhood!

This fall, history and celebration come together with the debut of Old Town Oktoberfest on Wells Street, from Friday to Sunday, September 19–21. Old Town, Chicago’s very first German neighborhood, will come alive with the sights, sounds, and flavors of Bavaria in a brand-new tradition you won’t want to miss.

🍺 Authentic Flavors: Feast on bratwurst, pretzels, and classic German beers.
🎶 Lively Entertainment: Dance and sing along with traditional German bands, local favorites, and festival performers all weekend.
🏈 Big-Screen Football & Games: Catch the action on a giant outdoor screen and test your strength in Masskrugstemmen (stein-holding contests) for a chance to win prizes.

For those seeking something extra, the VIP experience offers a retreat with premium perks — the perfect spot for beer lovers and festivalgoers who want to celebrate in style.

Whether you’re here for the food, the music, or simply to raise a glass with friends, Old Town Oktoberfest is set to become Chicago’s newest fall tradition.
