An Eastside Oktoberfest Celebration.

In case the recent windstorm that washed over western Washington last weekend wasn’t enough of a reminder that fall is on its way back in, here’s another one for you: Kirkland’s Oktoberfest is happening at the end of this month! This is the authentic biergarten experience Eastsiders are looking for. Bier, brats, German-style entertainment, beer games, competitions, and most importantly more bier will all be in attendance.

The three-day festival is heralded as the Seattle area’s largest authentic German Oktoberfest, featuring Festhalle (drink your bier from a 1 liter stein while locking arms at the long tables), SportHaus (watch the big game while playing some beer pong, stein hoisting, or do some keg rolling), and Sausagehaus (“the best German cuisine you’ll find this side of the Rhineland”). Get your tickets before September 25 to save $5 on General Admission!
