Walnut Creek Oktoberfest

September 25 & 26, 2026

Friday • 5:00–10:00 PM

Raise a stein and celebrate the season at Walnut Creek’s Oktoberfest, a lively two-day festival filled with music, community, and classic Bavarian-inspired fun.

Set in the heart of downtown, this high-energy event brings together live bands, traditional dancing, local food, artisan vendors, and a vibrant biergarten featuring dozens of craft beers and more. Whether you’re in the mood to sip, shop, dance, or just soak it all in, there’s something for everyone, including a family-friendly Kinder Karneval. Throw on your dirndl or lederhosen and join us for one of the most anticipated events of the year.
