Live Entertainment & Games
In true Oktoberfest spirit, attendees can participate in a variety of fun games and contests. Put your strength to the test in the Stein Holding Competition, where participants compete to see who can hold a full beer stein at arm’s length the longest. Or take on the Stein Carrying Contest, which challenges your balance and endurance as you carry multiple steins across the grounds.
