The Nashville Oktoberfest
Celebrate the traditions of the Oktoberfest in the heart of Music City! Oktoberfest is Nashville’s oldest-running festival & has been an annual tradition since 1980. It’s also the Largest Fall Festival in the South!
It’s not just a beer festival! Oktoberfest has something for EVERYONE: delicious German food from 25+ restaurants & vendors, GREAT beer from both local & German breweries, tons kids & family events, over 150 Arts & Crafts vendors, German music stages, Wiener Dog races, the 2nd largest 5K run in Tennessee – and so much more.
Spanning 10 city blocks, over a quarter of a million people will attend the 39th Annual Nashville Oktoberfest. But it’s not just a beer festival!
The event caters to adults and kids of all ages. An entire street will be dedicated to children’s activities and feature a Kids Zone, sponsored by Nashville Parent Magazine.
Another big draw is the free live music. There are three separate music stages at the event – each featuring German music and famous Oktoberfest Oompah bands.
Several city streets will be closed for the weekend in and around Germantown during Nashville Oktoberfest
