Lager Fest

An Oktoberfest block party on State Street.

October 3, 2026 2:00 PM – 6:00 PM State Street, Appleton

Our annual Lager Fest party celebrates Oktoberfest and all things lager by shutting down State Street and filling it with good music, good food, great lagers, and great people.

Live music all afternoon. Food trucks and a firkin parade every hour. A Stein Hold competition where the last person holding a full liter stein wins a year of free beer — one six-pack a month from the McFleshman's taproom. Every ticket includes a commemorative tasting glass to take home.
