Thank you for a successful Oktoberfest!
(The original pre-event coverage is below)
A big THANK YOU to everyone who participated in the Frachthaus Zer0.5K and turned out for Oktoberfest. We hope everyone had a wonderful time!
Also a huge THANK YOU to all of our support team and the event sponsors, listed below. Cannoneers and Wister's Barbecue as well as our brewers really stepped up to help when we were overwhelmed by hungry, thirsty crowds! The Philadelphia German Brass Band was awesome, the G.T.V. Alrausch German Dance Group (pictured) were great, and our volunteers worked hard.
We couldn't have done it without the support of the Lansdale community. Discover Lansdale learned a lot from our first Oktoberfest (the Lansdale Library ran the event in years past), and we're looking forward to bigger and better events in the years to come. THANK YOU ALL!!
And we urge you to check out our sponsors:
