Look no further than the Biergarten for a place to hang out and cool off this year. Located next to Main Stage, this festive tent is home to two of our fan favorite activities: The Home Brew Competition and the Stein Hoisting Competition. There’s always lots of fun and shenanigans happening in the Biergarten, so grab a stein and head on over!
Biergarten will feature our Local Lee’s Summit Brews as well as KC Bier Co to make this perfect spot to sit down and share a bier.
Home Brew Competition
Oktoberfest attendees will have the opportunity to partake in a tasting event, co-hosted with Grains & Taps, on Saturday, Sept. 23, 2023 from 11 a.m. – 2 p.m. in the Biergarten while participating home brewers serve up samples of their best brews!

Steinhoisting Competition

All participants will receive a commemorative glass stein filled with an ice cold beer to compete with during the competition. Upon completion of the competition the mug is yours and of course, you get to drink the beer!
One male and one female winner will be crowned and will receive an awesome prize!
