The 2009 Cleveland Labor Day Oktoberfest will feature a slew of new attractions and activities. This year we'll be serving food and beer inside the Bier Garten, including Johnsonville Brats - the official Bratwurst of the Cleveland Oktoberfest, as well as chicken wings by Scoundrels.
Bier Garten Girls in traditional drindl dresses will serve pitchers of beer, and Hofbräu's Dave Gierszal is shipping in authentic Bier Garten tables from Hofbrau Haus just for our event! The Best Oktoberfest Microbrew Competition has been expanded to include multiple styles of German Beer, and we welcome new entrants Willoughby Brewing Company, Fat Heads Brewery, Gordon Biersch of Columbus, and Cellar Rat's Brewing Company of Madison, OH.
NEW DANCE AND MUSICAL ACTS IN THE INTERNATIONAL PAVILIION
Our International Pavilions new acts include The Cavaliers Scream Team, Dance Israeli, The Rock City Hip Hop Dancers, Tropical Cleveland's Salsa Dancers (as seen on TV!), and Ritmo Y Raza's Carribean Dancers. To view a complete list of all International Pavilion acts, click here.
TO SEE A WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP IN A GRAIN OF SAND
Sand sculptor Carl Jara has always been a hit at the Oktoberfest, but now he's more than just a local phenom, he is a World Champion! This year Carl will be doing his take on the famous fable of Hansel and Gretel.
CLOCK TICKING DOWN TO THE UNVEILING OF THE 2009 GLOCKENSPIEL
The Glockenspiel is to the Oktoberfest what Mardis Gras is to Bourbon Street. The 2009 Glockenspiel will feature all new comic sketches, and has been upgraded so that it functions as a real clock! Look out for some new hi-tech special effects as well as The Celebrity Bead Toss. Every hour on the hour, the clock strikes fun, so be sure to catch a Glockenspiel act, and see if you can't catch an Oktoberfest souvenir in the process!
THE SUGARDALE FASTEST WIENER DOG RACES
This year Sugardale has come on board to sponsor out Fastest Wiener Dog Races! Last year, we had over three hundred dogs competing for the title of the Fastest Wiener. Click here for entry and event information.
