Top of the Bay Oktoberfest

From Top of the Bay Oktoberfest Website:

You can bet on a great time for your family beginning Friday, October 24 at 5pm as we tap the keg at Oktoberfest 2014 at Tampa Bay Downs!

The Upper Tampa Bay Chamber of Commerce is betting on a great weekend of non-stop entertainment under the Big-top tent for the 19th Annual Top o' the Bay Oktoberfest -- presented by Bright House Network, Tampa Bay Downs and Beck's Oktoberfest Bier!

Set for the weekend of October 24-26 at Tampa Bay Downs -- to provide a bigger and better celebration with acres of FREE parking -- Oktoberfest brings the best of Old Bavaria and new Florida together for three full days of authentic German food, drink, music and dancing ... along with a spectacular carnival & midway, a great arts & crafts show.

Oldsmar and Upper Tampa Bay's version of this German tradition is both the largest and the longest-running Oktoberfest in West Central Florida, attracting more than 10,000+ people from 16 Florida counties and more distant locations.

Some come for the music, the singing and dancing, others for the great German sausage, the Hofbrauhaus chicken, the great selection of beer vom Fass (straight from the tap) and Rhein wine.

Teens love the thrill of the carnival and midway; the young ones can't wait to have their faces painted and dance the "Chicken Dance."

No matter your age, your interests or attitude, you're sure to find something to your liking at the Top o' the Bay Oktoberfest!
