Can you tell that Oktoberfest is one of our very favorite times of the year? The Addison 4-day festival begins today, so we want to make sure you are all prepared for the excitement. Be sure to comment below for entry into our daily ticket give-a-way, plus everyone is entered into our grand prize which we will award tomorrow. That is a backseat full of goodies well worth over $650.
Enjoy Oktoberfest. We discuss the large variety of food today, and tomorrow you get the low down on the newest addition to the Addison Oktoberfest – Kaffee und Kuchen Haus.
While everyone knows the Brats, Kassler Ribchen (smoked pork chop) potato salad, and kraut from the giant 30,000 square foot Schloss Addison Main Tent, the 12 acre park is packed with other food vendors, too. Two of the most popular, which also have the longest lines so hit them early, are Helmut’s Strudel and the Skillet potatoes. If you are a veteran you know to check these spots out early while the uninitiated soak up their first few steins of Spaten.
We grabbed a list of all the specialty vendors along with ticket prices so you can plan accordingly.
