Building a Better Boyertown is thrilled to announce the 18th Annual Oktoberfest celebration, set to take place on Friday September 12th and Saturday September 13th in our Town Center Parking Lot. This year’s Oktoberfest is set to be the biggest and most exciting celebration yet, where Boyertown meets Bavaria!
More than just a festival, Oktoberfest is a community tradition filled with music, dancing, food, and fun for all ages. Guests can expect an authentic experience with lively German entertainment, cultural performances, and plenty of opportunities to shop from unique vendors and artisans. Whether you’re here for the savory food, refreshing craft beer, or simply soak in the festive atmosphere with friends and family, there’s something for everyone.
Friday evening kicks off with the sounds of Yodeling Dave Kline & his Mountain Folk Oktoberfest Band throughout the whole evening. Saturday, the festivities begin at 1:00pm with the ceremonial keg tapping led by Mayor Lori Carnes and accompanied by the Boyertown Alumni Band. Don’t miss performances throughout the day from the Auerhahn Schuhplatter Verein German Dancers, GTV Edelweiss Dancers from Liederkranz, Happy Dutchman German Band, and Fitz Magee. Saturday is family friendly with plenty of activities for children, such as Leaf Creek Adventures Gem Mining, Let us Bounce inflatables and face painting by Heidi. Some children’s activities on Saturday may include a small fee. Don’t miss the stein-holding contest for both children and adults!
Our beer garden offers a wide selection of authentic German brews alongside locally crafted beers and ciders. As always Oktoberfest is free to attend. The beer garden requires a cover charge and drink tickets on both evenings. There will be a variety of food trucks and vendors will be on-site with delicious food and non-alcoholic beverages for purchase.
Building a Better Boyertown is proud to carry on this beloved tradition that highlights community, culture, and heritage. We are grateful to our partners—Gabelsville Athletic Association, Friendship Hook and Ladder Social Club, and the Colebrookdale Railroad—for helping to make Oktoberfest 2025 a weekend to remember.
Mark your calendars, gather your friends and family, and get ready to raise a glass at Boyertown’s Oktoberfest 2025! For more information about this event visit https://www.eventeny.com/events/oktoberfest-19432/
