Mark your calendars for October 9–11, 2026, at Tempe Town Lake and Tempe Beach Park for the original Tempe Oktoberfest, presented by Four Peaks Brewing Co. and Tempe Sister Cities. Enjoy a full weekend of German food and beers, live music (rock, pop, and polka), contests, family fun, a carnival, and the Runnin’ for the Brats races, all while supporting Tempe Sister Cities’ international exchange programs and cultural initiatives.

We warmly invite our newsletter readers to join us as volunteers, it’s a fantastic way to connect with friends and family while helping make this beloved 50+ year tradition a success! Visit fourpeaksoktoberfest.com for details and volunteer opportunities.
