Description:

From Galveston Island Oktoberfest Website:

Galveston's Island Oktoberfest was first celebrated in 1981 by members of First Lutheran Church who traced their roots back to German immigrants of the mid 1800s. What started simply as a "fall activity for the congregation and their friends and neighbors in the courtyard in front of the Parish Hall" has grown and expanded into what is now Galveston Island's premier fall event attracting over 15,000 "friends and neighbors" for this fun two day event.

Featuring live and lively entertainment, great Wusrt Abendessen (German Sausage Dinner) and libations, fun children's activities (including activities from the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo), a variety of booths featuring handcrafted gifts, arts & crafts, a live auction, Cake Wheel, and tempting treats from the Sweets booths, you don't want to miss this yearly event. In addition to the traditional Sausage Dinner, homemade cakes and sweets, festival goers can look forward to Helmut's Strudel and Donald Gangl's apple cake.
