The Road to Oktoberfest Is Here!

September is here and that means Oktoberfest season has officially arrived! Before we jump into everything ahead, thank you to everyone who joined us for our Sip, Style, & Socialize mixer at Mosaic Hair Studio. We loved seeing familiar faces, meeting new ones and spending another great evening connecting with our local business community. A special thank you to everyone at Mosaic Hair Studio for welcoming us into their space and helping make the evening possible!

Next up, get ready to play, win and prost at Road to Oktoberfest Bingo at the Glendale Elks Lodge on Sept. 12! Your $25 entry includes 10 rounds of bingo for cash prizes, with bonus games and raffles adding even more chances to win throughout the night. Come hungry because the Elks Lodge will have food and drinks available for purchase and The Cozy Cookie Company will be there with plenty of sweet treats! Doors open at 5 p.m. with the first game beginning at 6 p.m. Grab your friends, test your luck and join the fun!

Then comes the big one! The 47th Annual Montrose Oktoberfest, proudly supported by Babaians Law Firm, returns on Saturday, Oct. 3 from 12 p.m.–10 p.m. on Honolulu Avenue. Get ready for a full day of carnival rides and games, delicious food, beer and wine, contests, kids activities and live entertainment across three stages. This year, we’re revamping the entertainment at our Bavarian Stage to bring even more fun to the celebration. There’s plenty more to come as we get closer to the big day, so follow us on Instagram at @montroseoktoberfest for the latest announcements, entertainment schedules and Oktoberfest updates!

October 3 will be here before we know it so mark your calendars, gather your family and friends, and get ready to celebrate Oktoberfest in the heart of Montrose. We’ll see you there!
