Simultaneously, guests can experience a slice of Germany with the park’s ‘Oktoberfest’ celebration. This event will also occur on Saturdays and Sundays, beginning on Sept. 14 and extending until Nov. 2, with festivities running from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. Visitors can enjoy authentic German food, a plethora of beers, music, and family-friendly entertainment, including yard games and a brat-eating contest.
