50th Annual Oktoberfest!

Welcome to Sidney's 50th Anniversary Oktoberfest - where the Midwest meets Bavarian flair for a weekend of non-stop fun! We're turning up the excitement for our biggest celebration yet, and you're invited to join the party.

Start your adventure at the Oktoberfest Market and Craft Fair, where you can discover all sorts of unique finds and handmade treasures. Whether you're on the hunt for a quirky souvenir or just window shopping, it's a blast! Then, head over to the Beer Garden, where the drinks are cold, and the vibes are warm. Grab a stein, make some new friends, and let the good times roll!

Feeling hungry? Get ready to chow down on a delicious mix of ethnic and local eats that'll have you coming back for seconds (and thirds). From bratwursts to hometown favorites, your taste buds are in for a treat.

But wait, there's more! We've got the Husker Game live on the big screen, so you won't miss a single play. Imagine cheering on the Huskers with a crowd of fans, all while soaking up the Oktoberfest atmosphere - does it get any better than that?

The weekend is jam-packed with action! Kick things off with the 5K run, or O'fest Four-Person Scramble Golf Scramble. Be sure to grab your spot for the parade - it's a colorful, music-filled showcase of everything Sidney has to offer. And for the grand finale, don't miss the annual wiener dog race on Sunday! These little pups are ready to dash to victory, and trust us, it's as hilarious as it is adorable.

Sidney's 50th Annual Oktoberfest is more than just an event—it's a celebration of everything that makes our community awesome. Whether you're here for the beer, the food, or just the fun, this is one weekend you won't want to miss. Here's to 50 years of laughter, memories, and plenty of reasons to say "Prost!"
