Oktoberfest Saturday 10/4/08 11am-11pm
Don't miss the fun and excitement as Oakland Park Main Street presents the fourth annual Oktoberfest celebration in downtown Oakland Park. Fun and entertainment for the whole family including a Bavarian-style “Biergarten” offering a selection of popular German favorites such as bratwurst, knockwurst, pork loin, sauerkraut and German potato salad, as well as freshly baked pretzels, “Brotchen,” apple strudel, and the decadent “Schwarzwaelder Kirschtorte,” in addition to a selection of German wines and authentic German-brewed Oktoberfest beers.
A large tent replicates the authentic atmosphere of a Bavarian village celebration, including a stage and a dance floor. Some of the famous Oktoberfest dances will be performed, including the German weavers dance and performances by the “Edelweiss Schuhplattlers” (children’s dance troupe) and the “Original Auerhahn Schuhplattler Dancers” (adults). Vendors in the Alpine market will offer a variety of gift items, and collectibles and more. A carnival featuring rides, games and refreshments will entertain kids and adults alike.
The fun also includes a ‘Dachshund Dash,’ keg races, stein races and ‘Apfelstrudel’ eating and polka dance competition.
