The 19th Annual Galena Oktoberfest is a German heritage festival nestled in historic Galena, Illinois.
Grab an Ice-Cold Beer and a Bratwurst and make your way to the famous Wiener Dog Races. After that, sit back and listen to the gentle sound of the Alpen Horns softly playing, or throw on your lederhosen and dance to some Polka Music.Bring the whole family, and head over to the Kinder Area where children can try their luck with The Great Pumpkin Lift and win free Potosi Root Beer. Grab some Apple Cider Donuts and paint some pumpkins or play Big Jenga or Big Connect4 in the shade a while.Tired of relaxing? Accomplish a feat of strength in the Samuel Adams Stein Hoisting Competition.Whatever you do, just remember…..at Galena Oktoberfest, whether you win or lose,
EVERY DOG IS A WIENER!
