This weekend, Naper Settlement welcomes back a venerable tradition: Oktoberfest!

For two evenings, under a large heated tent, guests will enjoy German cuisine, local and traditional Oktoberfest beer varieties, and a blend of polka and rock music throughout the weekend.

On Saturday, test your strength by participating in the stein holding contest. There will also be a variety of lawn games for the whole family. Grab your lederhosen and join this fun German festival.
