Dust off your Lederhosen and steins--Munich is coming back to Lawrence!

The city of Lawrence, in partnership with Indiana On Tap, is excited to present the return of the wildly popular 'Lagers in Lawrence' Oktoberfest. The 2022 event will take place on Saturday, Sept. 24th from 2pm - 6pm. This event will again be one of the largest and premier Oktoberfest events in all of central Indiana.

This festive event returns to its exciting new home in 2022, the Fort Ben Cultural Campus! This picturesque campus features the newly-renovated historic theater, a visual arts center, an artist walk, a history walk, an amphitheater, and the world's largest set of musical swings, all surrounded by stunning public art displays and green spaces. For more information on the Cultural Campus, please visit www.artsforlawrence.com/FBCC.

Attendees will be allowed UNLIMITED POURS of more than 100+ craft beverages. The event will feature all styles of beer in addition to the popular Lager styles. And not to worry, there will be plenty of pretzels.

In addition to featuring one of Indy's best DJ's who will be playing all of your favorite dance hits on stage, we're ALSO excited to feature the Liederkranz Brass Band--a 15-piece authentic Munich Oktoberfest-style German band who will also be performing from 3pm - 5pm!

For you food lovers, get excited! We'll be featuring several great food vendors!

Returning in 2022: We're excited to introduce Oktoberfest-style, Weiner Dog Racing! That's right, Dachshunds of all shapes and sizes from around central Indiana will be racing in multiple heats throughout the event in the 'Running of the Weiners,' with the winners competing in the championship heat at the end for the honor of 'Fastest Weiner.' Trust us--if you've never seen it, you don't want to miss it!
