Oktoberfest at Petrifying Springs Biergarten

Kenosha County's Oktoberfest runs Friday through Sunday at the community beer garden tucked into the south end of Petrifying Springs Park. Two dedicated beer stations pour German imports alongside food from the biergarten kitchen and visiting vendors, and live music plays across all three days. Admission to the grounds is free, with a complimentary shuttle running on the Saturday to ease parking. Past editions have added lederhosen and dirndl best-dressed contests, pretzel-eating heats and a ceremonial keg tapping.
