The Great Northwest Oktoberfest!
Oct 8th, 2026
5 p.m. - 11 p.m.

Where:
Depot Park
510 Railway St Whitefish, MT

Description:
Get ready for authentic German beer, food, music and dancing. Entertainment will be provided by Europa — one of America’s most sought-after Oktoberfest bands — as well polkas, oom-pahs and more by local talents: The MAC Band, Hungry 5, and Accordion Bob & Co. And on Saturday afternoons, it’s the Flathead’s own German orchestra, the Bavarian Echoes!

Then it’s time for you to get into the act by entering one of our nightly stein-holding or log-sawing contests, hurling kegs on Saturday evening, putting together a team for the Beer Barrel Races, or doing the chicken dance!
