This South Bay take on the Bavarian tradition promises authentic German cuisine, craft brews, and live entertainment with German music and dancing, and carnival rides and games.

For those looking for a little friendly competition, Gemütlichkeit Games (Friendlies) include stein hoisting, wiener dog racing, yodeling, sausage eating, a costume contest, and more.
