Brauhaus Schmitz, located at 718 South Street, will bring the sights, sounds and tastes of Munich to the Philadelphia region at three of Pennsylvania and South Jersey’s largest Oktoberfest celebrations.
Get ready to raise a liter and dance in the street as South Street Oktoberfest returns for its 15th year on Saturday, September 16, 2023, from 12:00pm to 8:00pm, on the 700 block of South Street. The all-day, all-ages celebration will feature covered seating for over 1,000 people, live Oom-pah music all day, German dancers, the liter lift competition, a dozen German beers, signature Bavarian dishes, face painting, outdoor games, family fun and much more.
One week later, the 6th Annual Oktoberfest on the Square takes over the Haddon Square Pop Up Garden (51 Haddon Ave, Westmont, NJ) on Saturday, September 23, 2023, from Noon to 10:00pm. Considered the largest Oktoberfest in South Jersey, this event brings together Brauhaus Schmitz and Keg & Kitchen for a celebration with a giant tent, blue and white Bavarian decorations, imported tables and benches, giant steins of German bier, a pig roast, and other German specialty dishes, plus live music from Maria and John Band.
Two weeks later, they saved the best for last as one of the most authentic celebrations in the United States returns with the 5th Annual 23rd Street Armory Oktoberfest, on Friday, October 13 and Saturday, October 14, 2023, with three afternoon and evening sessions. Look for the historic Armory to be transformed from top to bottom into a sea of blue and white with miles of fabric and custom decorations, artwork and furniture. Look for opening tap, dancing, German traditions, food, drink and so much more. South Street and Haddon Square are family friendly, free to attend and food/drink pay-as-you-go, with South Street also offering an exclusive VIP experience in the Brauer Bund. 23rd Street Armory Oktoberfest is a ticketed event for those 21 and older. Armory tickets are on sale now – with a special $10 off the Friday night session.
