Chippewa Falls Oktoberfest

The Northern Wisconsin State Fair Association turns its Chippewa Falls fairgrounds over to a two-day ticketed Oktoberfest each September. A black-tie-optional Festmeister's Gala in the Custer Coliseum opens the run the night before, serving an authentic German dinner with drink tickets included and sold by the seat, couple or table. Single-day and two-day gate admissions cover the main festival days, with paid on-site parking, and an upgraded Freund package adds a commemorative hat pin and a merchandise discount.
