Where to be this Addison Oktoberfest
Partyhalle 
The beloved Partyhalle is back this year. Dance the night away in the open-air tent featuring over 1,000 seats, a dance floor, and great views of the elevated stage. This year the fan-favorite Masskrugstemmen (stein-hoisting competition) has moved to the Partyhalle so check your program so you don't miss the fun. Be sure to find your seat by 8pm on Thursday for the official keg tapping.

Musikzelt
The fun never stops at our outdoor music stage, with entertaining performances and opportunities to join in on games and activities throughout the weekend.

Draught Haus Biergarten
Football is back and we do not want you to miss it! Grab a table and an ice-cold Paulaner bier in the Draught Haus Biergarten. Cheer on your favorite college and pro football teams with a cold one and a big screen.

Kleinhalle
Step into the air-conditioned Addison Conference Centre for a relaxing vibe, live entertainment, and food & beverage with table service. No reservation is required to savor a selection of small bites, plus special bier and wine options that are only available in this location.

Paulaner Biergarten
