The best time of the year is almost here! Seattle’s highly anticipated Oktoberfest is returning to Fremont from September 18 to 20, delivering a weekend filled with craft beers, delicious Bavarian-style food, and lively entertainment.
What to expect at the 2026 Fremont Oktoberfest
With over 80 seasonal beers to choose from, Fremont Oktoberfest has something for every palate — plus ciders, cocktails, and non-alcoholic alternatives. In the food department, brats, pretzels, and other German fare will keep you fueled all day long.
Come for the food and drinks, stay for the entertainment. From a Bavarian costume contest to a stein-holding showdown, Fremont Oktoberfest has no shortage of festivities. Try your hand at the Alpine Slide without spilling your beer, partake in line-dancing lessons led by professional dancers, or kick off your Sunday with the Fremont Oktoberfest Beer Mile Run.
Sunday, September 20, is Dogtoberfest, so bring your furry friends! The competitions aren’t just for the humans; if you register your pet for the Top Dog Showcase, they can compete for titles including best dressed, best trick, and best tail.
Fremont Oktoberfest will take place from Friday, September 18, to Sunday, September 20, between Phinney Ave N and 1st Ave NW, and N 35th Street and N Canal Street. The event is strictly 21-plus, and general admission tickets start at $15.
