Benicia Oktoberfest & Marketplace returns to the beautiful Benicia waterfront for a full day of family-friendly Oktoberfest fun!

Enjoy three live bands throughout the day, German-inspired fare including schnitzel, bratwurst and sauerkraut, an all-German beer and wine lineup for the adults, stein-holding and best-dressed competitions, and a waterfront marketplace featuring more than 25 local makers, artisans and vendors.

Families can enjoy a FREE Mega Kid Zone featuring train rides, a bounce house, games and more. Children 12 and under are admitted FREE with a paid adult.

And don’t forget dessert! Festivalgoers can try Spaghettieis, the playful German ice cream treat made to look like a plate of spaghetti.

Benicia Oktoberfest is the Benicia Chamber of Commerce’s largest annual fundraiser, supporting its year-round work strengthening Benicia’s local business community.

Come for the music, food and festivities, explore downtown Benicia, and make a day of it on the waterfront!
