Harpoon Octoberfest
Boston, MA
Octoberfest in Boston was the very first festival we threw here at the brewery back in 1990. More than two decades and thousands of oompah songs later, Harpoon Octoberfest has become a beloved New England fall celebration. What’s not to love about a big party at your local brewery, sipping on fresh Octoberfest beer alongside your friends, nibbling on bratwursts, watching (or joining) chicken dancing and German chocolate cake-eating contests, and toasting it all while lederhosen-clad oompah musicians waltz their hearts out?
