The city of Leavenworth has announced details about Oktoberfest 2022, set to happen over three weekends – Sept. 30 to Oct. 1, Oct. 7 to Oct. 8, and Oct. 14 to Oct. 15.
Leavenworth’s Oktoberfest in 2021 was canceled due to statewide COVID-19 restrictions after the city decided the usual celebration would be a “disservice” to everybody involved.
The city did say the 2022 event will look different from past celebrations.
The festival area will be more spread out, with events at the Festhalle, Front Street Park and other areas of downtown.
There will also be more family friendly events, such as a Kinderplatz with a root beer garden.
