Oktoberfest at North by Northwest is an Austin tradition that is over 10 years old and held right on NXNW grounds.
Head Chef George Powell cooks up a special German treat on Oktoberfest: we offer real German bratwurst, home-made saurkraut, fresh red-cabbage, pretzels and Bavarian cobblers.
To complement your German meal, brewmaster Don Thompson and head brewer Kevin Roark make a special Oktoberfest brew.
What Oktoberfest would be complete without area music? Last year North by Northwest welcomed Oma and the Oompahs, The Tubameisters, and Gary Trumet and the Sauerkrauts.
There's something for everyone at Oktoberfest: dancing, local artists, a bratwurst-eating contest, a wiener dog costume contest and plenty of activities for the kids! An all-breed dog costume contest as well as a Weiner dog costume contest are held for our four-legged friends.
