Miami needs beer. Happily Octoberfest in Wynwood is coming soon
Wynwood’s Octoberfest is back in September for the 11th year, transforming Wynwood Marketplace in Miami into a little slice of Munich. A humid, sweltering Munich — you seriously are going to want to skip the lederhosen — but Munich nonetheless.
The annual event, which was canceled in 2020 due to the pandemic, is presented by Samuel Adams and features live music and DJ sets, an artisan market and all sorts of seasonal brews. There will be competitions, all of which will involve beer or holding up a beer stein longer than anybody else. Bratwurst will also make an appearance.
You can even bring your dog, so plan to share your bratwurst.
The four-day event is free, though you’ll need to pay for your food and beverages.
