EMBRACE THE MOMENT
PROST TO THE MEMORIES

September through November is without a doubt the most distinctive season in Big Bear Lake. The air gets a little crisper, leaves change colors, and best of all, Oktoberfest takes center stage. The Big Bear Lake Oktoberfest takes place for nine straight weekends September 9 to November 5. The 53rd annual Oktoberfest celebration combines Big Bear's mountain charm with authentic German traditions, charismatic characters dressed in full regalia, German bands rocking both traditional and top 40 tunes, and of course the crowd favorite Chicken dance!

Big Bear Lake Oktoberfest brings friends and families together to celebrate each other and a simpler era, creating memories that last a lifetime. With a 53-year history, Big Bear Lake Oktoberfest offers a festival like no other! So, when you're at Oktoberfest embrace the moment and then be sure to raise your stein sky high to toast (prost) the memories.
