Oktoberfest back for 2nd year in Concord at Todos Santos Plaza Oct. 11-12

Todos Santos Plaza will turn into a mini-Munich again on Oct. 11-12 when downtown Concord, CA, hosts an authentic German Oktoberfest with beer tent, live music, singing and dancing, strongman contests, food truck fare, arts and crafts booths, kid’s area and more at Concord Oktoberfest 2019.

The beer tent will be the meeting point for craft brew fans with German-style lagers from 20 breweries near and far. Adjacent to the large tent on the Todos Santos stage, the popular SF German Band (aka Deutscher MusikVerein of San Francisco) is back to bring their heritage of playing German music in the Bay Area since 1938.

The free, family-friendly community event includes food, beer and wine and rides available for purchase.

Presented by The Brewing Network, Visit Concord and the Greater Concord Chamber of Commerce, Concord Oktoberfest is Friday, Oct. 11, from 6-9 p.m. and Saturday, Oct. 12, from 2-8 p.m.

To enter the beer area visitors must be 21 and over. Beer garden tickets are available for advance purchase at Concord Oktoberfest.com. The $25 fee includes a commemorative glass and two half-liter pours. Additional drink tickets will be available for purchase.

Proceeds from the event benefit Bike Concord. There is free parking available at two Concord garages on either side of Todos Santos off Salvio St. and throughout downtown Concord or take BART to the Concord station and walk four blocks to the event.
