General Information

Guten Tag! Looking for a great event with Oktoberfest entertainment and food in the company of your friends and/or family? Then you've found your fall destination! Oktoberfest in Downers Grove is a 3-day community and family-oriented event. It has everything you'd expect in an authentic Oktoberfest and MORE!

From wonderful authentic German oompah music to tasty German food, not to mention ice cold beer. This year, in addition to our German music we now introduce our Rocktoberfest beginning at 9:00 p.m.! Friday and Saturday nights will feature two local rock and roll bands highlighting a fun-filled evening.

This year, as in the past 7 years, the Rotary Club of Downers Grove will contribute its proceeds collected through gate entry fees, corporate/personal sponsorships and other donations to very worthy recipients both locally and internationally in the spirit of our motto: "Service Above Self".
