OKTOBERFEST NATION CHICAGO
September 17 – October 24, 2026
Location: Fulton Market | Chicago
Always All Ages | Guests 21+ May Enjoy Beer, Wine & Cocktails
Direct from Germany Hofbrau Munchen takes over.
One toast turns into another. The German band starts playing. Someone climbs onto a picnic table. A giant pretzel gets passed around the table. Friends challenge each other at the carnival games. The Devil's Wheel fills the air with laughter. Before you know it, you're singing with people you met only hours ago and wishing the celebration didn't have to end.
That's Oktoberfest Chicago in Fulton Market.
