Main Stage – located on Southport Ave, the main stage features our music headliners, bands throughout the weekend, the ceremonial keg tapping on Friday evening, and the Stein hoisting competition finals on Saturday night! Just behind you and to your left, you'll find one of our tents selling a selection of beer, wine, and even a few canned cocktails. (Click HERE to go to the music & entertainment page for the Fest.)
German Corner Biergarten – located at the corner of Southport & Oakdale next to the main stage, this is also the former site of historic Zum Deutschen Eck restaurant. Here you will, of course, find one of our tents selling a selection of beer, wine, and even a few canned cocktails.
Parking Lot Stage – the first stage of music, entertainment, and Sunday games as you enter our Oktoberfest Grounds. It happens to be the parking lot for St. Alphonsus Church and school, hence the name. (Click HERE to go to the music & entertainment page for the Fest.)
Sam Adams Biergarten – easily found as you enter the Oktoberfest grounds, it's located in the main parking lot of St. Alphonsus church and school. Here you will also encounter the Sam Adams hospitality bar, which offers the sign ups for the prelims of the Stein Hoisting competition.
Festival Hall – an Indoor Beer Hall – just to the right of the main entrance, Festival Hall is the church's lower hall that is transformed into a Bavarian-style beer hall. With rows of lengthy tables, it's the perfect place for groups of friends or families to gather, sit, and enjoy their beer & brats. In addition to getting a fresh pour of Octoberfest in Festival Hall, this is also the only venue where you can find a flight of imported German beer!
St. Al's Food Tent – found quickly just inside the entrances to the festival grounds, this is where you get our famous Fest Brats! This special bratwurst recipe was brought by from Germany generations ago, preserved and passed down by parishioners of St. Alphonsus, and only available here! Get it with German potato salad, sauerkraut, and a slice of German Bee Sting Cake (Bienenstich) for dessert! It'll make you shout Wunderbar!
Merchandise Tent – just inside the main entrance alongside the church, this is where you can get your Oktoberfest swag on: T-shirts, Tyrolean hats, baseball caps, and of course, our über-authentic commemorative 2026 Oktoberfest Steins! (best to pre-order yours, because they will sell out!)
Brat Express Tent – on the northwest corner of Southport & Oakdale, here you can quickly grab one of our famous Brats or a hot dog without having to wander away from the music of the main stage or the fun of the German Corner Biergarten.
Restaurant Row – located along Oakdale Ave., this is where you can find a variety of other treats to eat from local restaurants or other food vendors.
Gemütlichkeit – this is the heart-warming feeling you get from enjoying the festival atmosphere with old friends and new. It's literally available anywhere & everywhere throughout our Oktoberfest festival grounds! Prost!
