On nowOktoberfest lands in Franklin Park with the season. Early on the beer halls run on Bavarian bands and giant steins, later it's dancing, though the lederhosen were never required of anyone. The long tables carry the rest, bratwurst and pretzels arriving steadily, the German beer doing the remainder of the work. Or is a quiet beer with friends the plan? Browse Oktoberfest 2026 events and parties across Franklin Park, check the dates, and book your tickets before they're taken.
