OXTOBERFEST

Our annual farm-to-table Bavarian celebration the first Saturday of Oxtober

More information

additional information

Since 2015 we have been celebrating agriculture in Alaska by offering up a locally grown and locally crafted farm-to-table celebration

Nothing shouts "Alaskan Grown!" more than this Bavarian feast surrounded by natural Alaskan beauty. With locally grown potatoes in the potato salad, giant Palmer cabbage in the sauerkraut, Alaskan bratwurst, hand-crafted soft pretzels, and locally brewed beers, ales, and hard ciders, we bask in the support and creativity of our local businesses.

Join our mailing list to be notified when tickets go on sale. This event has SOLD OUT every year! Previous attendees and Musk Ox Farm FOMO members have early access to tickets.

Another MUST for a proper Oxtoberfest is the music!

the house band is Alaska Blaskapelle, the finest

Oompah band outside of Munich. This 12-piece

lederhosen-clad brass band keeps the waltzes and

polkas flowing and rest assured, you ill be showing

off your very best chicken dance at least one. They

also make sure to keep the mood festive with

multiple rounds of Ein Prosit, the official toasting

song of Oxtoberfest. This lively ensemble always

provides an immersive oxtoberfest experience, sure

to get your blood pumping and your hands clapping.
