OKM MUSIC: Willkommen Zum Oktoberfest!

BARTLESVILLE, Okla. — Welcome to Oktoberfest! OKM Music will present its Tenth Annual Oktoberfest on Saturday, October 1 from 3:00 to 9:00 p.m. This event will be held between 4th and 5th street (at the OKM Office: 415 S.

         OKM will bring back Hammerschlagen, Zufall (gift walk), Yeti Raffle, Corn Hole, Beer Stein Relay Race, and Beer Stein Competition for the adults. This year, OKM is adding Dart Pong, Bucket Pong, and Axe Throwing. Students and teens will enjoy Root Beer Pong and the Putt-Putt Game. Children will have a blast with Lebkuchen cookie decorating, filling their Schultüte, Kazoo Wahoo, Duck Game, face painting, and two bouncy houses with slides.
         Oktoberfest goers can expect German favorites such as sausages, sauerkraut, pretzels, strudel and bierocks.  Guests won’t be disappointed in the street tacos, numerous sweet treats, and other goodies. Food trucks participating this year are Price’s Meat Market, The Eatery by 3 Kids & A Cake, Crossing Second and SuperCentro. Oktoberfest wouldn’t be the same without great beer, and this year won’t disappoint.  Come out and taste your favorite beers from Oklahoma’s local breweries: Scissortail Brewing Company, Emersumnice Brewery, Cooper & Mill Brewing Company and Cabin Boy’s Brewery. 
         The GAST folk dancers will return to showcase traditional Bavarian dancing as well as entice guests to participate in the beloved “Chicken Dance.” Live polka music will be provided by the German-American Society of Tulsa Bands: Blaskapelle and Mach Schnell. A new edition to this year’s entertainment is the King Cabbage Brass Band.
