In Munich, Oktoberfest runs from September 19 through October 4, and Beergarden is celebrating right alongside them. Following tradition—where the mayor taps the first keg—beergarden has invited Eugene Mayor Kaarin Knudson to pour the first stein of beer and officially kick off their 2026 Oktoberfest.
As always, Beergarden is creating commemorative Oktoberfest glassware, and this year’s steins are something special. Grab yours while supplies last and take home a piece of their annual celebration.
Throughout the festival, guests can enjoy German‑inspired food, German brews, and daily entertainment. Each day will feature spotlight breweries, rotating draft selections, activities, events, and live music. Brianna, beergarden beer buyer, has been curating an incredible lineup to make this Oktoberfest one of their best yet.
Featured Food a selection of German-inspired dishes from beergarden’s food partners, including:
Green-Gos Tacos. Brats and Sauerkraut Taco with a choice of AuJus or Jalapeño Cheese Sauce for dipping and Beer Brat Corn Chowder
