Breckenridge’s 17th annual Oktoberfest, September 16-18, 2011, includes a fun-filled weekend of fall foliage, great parties, Paulaner Bier, genuine German cuisine, collectable steins and special accommodation packages. Don’t miss the largest Oktoberfest in the Rocky Mountains.
Main Street Party gets under way on Saturday at 11:00 a.m. with the fun continuing right through until 6:00 p.m. The Merchandise Tent will be opening up at 10:00 a.m. on Saturday. The party gets going again on Sunday morning with the Street Party from 11:00 a.m. until 5:00 p.m. Sunday’s party is a bit more laid back, family oriented and still a whole lot of fun!
Gourmet multi-course dinner is held on Friday evening the 16th.
Enjoy a multi-course meal elegantly paired with European biers and alternate wines with the 1st course starting at 6:00p.m. There is limited seating and the dinner has been a sold out event the last four years. It is a great evening of food, new friends and the perfect kick off to an amazing Oktoberfest celebration dinner.
The town’s 17th annual Oktoberfest, where Munich meets Breckenridge on Saturday and Sunday when Main Street closes and comes to life as a street party with traditional costumes, German food, Oompah and polka music, Bavarian dancers, children’s activities, a keg-tapping ceremony, 5k run and, of course, Paulaner bier.
The Main Street Party features more than two dozen food vendors, lots of dancing and a weekend of fun. Due to the extensive food and beverage offerings, we ask that you please leave your best four legged friends at home as well as any outside alcoholic beverages. Don’t forget your ID though.
