Oktoberfest Village at Squaw Valley – 2018

Oktoberfest Village at Squaw Valley - 2018 Fall is here in North Lake Tahoe – Truckee area and it’s time for the annual Oktoberfest event at the Village at Squaw Valley this Saturday, Sept 22, 2018 from noon to 6 p.m.

If you aren’t ready to say good-bye to summer, come out and celebrate the changing of our seasons at one of our local Oktoberfest events!

Ski season will be here before we know it, so let’s enjoy our warm fall days and have some fun at the annual Oktoberfest event at the Village at Squaw Valley!

This Saturday, you’ll want to check out the Village at Squaw Valley for Oktoberfest 2018!

I can’t count how many times we’ve gone to this event, and we’ll go again this year. It’s hard not to enjoy the Village turning itself into a mini Bavarian themed event.

There is live music, authentic food (can anyone say bratwurst?), German brews, and fun games for all ages to enjoy!

Admission is free to the event, but the cost for food and beverages will vary depending on your selection.

In the past all beer sale proceeds have gone to the High Sierra Lacrosse Foundation, so you’ll be having fun while helping out a great local group!

Oktoberfest Village at Squaw Valley - 2018 Need more reasons to go to this fun event? Let’s talk games! There will be a keg rolling race, a Brat Toss yes, the ever popular wiener toss is back again and there is a Stein Holding Competition!

I have to admit, my favorite event is the Brat Toss event. You get one chance to toss your brat onto the top of a keg.

It’s not as easy as it looks, but so much fun to watch contestants try!

Last but not least, will be the Stein Holding Competition.

The Village at Squaw Valley will be featuring a German theme through-out the Village. If you love to dance and sing along then you’ll enjoy the live music, where you’ll get a chance to be part of the action.

Feel like dressing up? You’re encouraged to wear traditional Lederhosen and dirndls, but it’s not required!

To get you in the mood there will be live Bavarian music played featuring Joe Smiell and his 20 piece Bavarian Band and they are awesome!

Festival goers that are 21+ and want to enjoy a great German beer can purchase a mug and two beers for $20 that will come in a commemorative beer glass/mug, and all other beers will be $5 with your glass.

For those younger in age, check out the root beer float station! Yes, I can tell you this is delicious, sweet treat too!

Oktoberfest Village at Squaw Valley - 2018 Craig (my better half in life) has really enjoyed the brats, and for me the over-sized pretzels with special mustards, along with and ice cold German Beer have all been delicious.

Later in the afternoon we’ve hit the Root Beer Float version and that was great way to end our festival day.

We’re expecting blue skies, with some clouds. Day time temperatures will only be in the low 70’s, which means in the sunshine it will be warm, but if it clouds over, in the shade it will be cooler, so wear a jacket and dress in layers.

If you’ll be in the North Lake Tahoe area this weekend check out this fun fall event.

I know that after I’m done showing properties on Saturday morning, Craig and I, along with Stella our Irish Wolfhound dog will be headed out to Squaw Valley to enjoy our late summer weather and some great German beer.

If you see us, stop by and say hello! We’d love to catch-up with you!
