What to expect
Frankenmuth’s Oktoberfest takes place in Michigan’s best-known Bavarian-style destination. The covered Harvey Kern Pavilion hosts four days of music, food, dancing, and German festival traditions near downtown shops and restaurants.
Frankenmuth tourism notes the event’s formal connection with Munich: it received a Munich proclamation and blessing in 1996, followed by Hofbräuhaus sponsorship beginning in 1997.
