Live Music & Entertainment at Oktoberfest

2–4 PM: Francine & The Scene
Kick off the afternoon with live music from Francine & The Scene.
4–5 PM: Witch Way Wanderers Dance Troupe
Between musical acts, Witch Way Wanderers will bring a little German tradition — and plenty of fun — to our Oktoberfest celebration. The Saratoga-area dance troupe performs dances modeled after the Wolfshager Hexenbrut witch dance troupe of Wolfshagen, Germany. Made up of amateur dancers of all ages and backgrounds, the Witch Way Wanderers perform throughout the region with a mission of bringing joy, laughter, and dance to the community.
5–7 PM: Tooty and the Motherpluckers
The Oktoberfest celebration continues with Tooty and the Motherpluckers from 5–7 PM.
Festive Outfit Contest
Break out the lederhosen and dirndls! We’ll award $20 Artisanal Brew Works gift cards at 5 PM to the most festively dressed Oktoberfest guests.
A Bierhall Experience Beside Nature’s Edge Terrace
Our event tent, set on the lawn beside Nature’s Edge Terrace, will take on a traditional bierhall feel for Oktoberfest.
As the sun goes down, string lights throughout the tent and across Nature’s Edge Terrace create a warm, glowing atmosphere that adds to the Oktoberfest experience.
Nature’s Edge Terrace is kid- and dog-friendly, with plenty of outdoor space for the whole family to enjoy the celebration.
