This fall, Oktoberfest takes over Morey’s Piers with three consecutive weekends (September 21-23, September 28-30, and October 5-7) of German-themed revelry, live entertainment, a kids “Rootbier Garten” activity area and much more. On Friday, September 21 at 5:00pm the annual festivities kick-off with a ceremonial keg tapping of Warsteiner beer, live entertainment from Late Last Night, and the Morey family clad in lederhosen. Special guest Helmut Fricker, a German yodeler and alphorn player, will also be joining the opening weekend festivities

A variety of bands will rock the new Coca-Cola branded stage at Mariner’s Pier near the Giant Wheel during the Oktoberfest weekends. Musical performances are scheduled for Fridays from 6:30pm-10:30pm and Saturdays from 1:00pm-5:00pm, then again from 6:30pm-10:30pm.

Visitors can feast on German fare aplenty including, fried pierogies, large Bavarian Pretzels, Bavarian Bacon Skewers, Cheddar Bratwurst and Bacon Knockwurst on a pretzel roll.
