Featuring Real German Cuisine by Schnitzelbank

Oompah!!!  OKTOBERFEST/OKTOBERFEAST Louisville is the quintessential outdoor celebration of Fall and the River City’s rich German heritage.  The two-day party on Fourth Street, between Broadway and Chestnut Streets, will satisfy our city’s annual craving for real German food, live music and brew.            

The official caterer of OKTOBERFEST/OKTOBERFEAST Louisville is the famous Schnitzelbank of Jasper, Indiana.  Revelers will enjoy authentic schnitzel, brats, sauerkraut and more while they brush up for the  biggest “Duck Dance” in town.  If all goes well, more than a few brave Deutsche-o-philes will save room for the Annual “Bratwurst Eating Contest.”
