This weekend, head to Hofbräuhaus—but we’re not talking about the one in Munich.
On Saturday, River North will transform into a Bavarian-style block party, complete with music, food, and an abundance of beer.
A German-style beer hall tent will be set up along Hubbard Street, featuring a beer garden with seasonal beer specials.
Every bar you love on Hubbard will bring its own Oktoberfest flair. Expect traditional oompah bands during the day, followed by DJs and a lively nightlife scene after dark.
Hubbard Haus will include steins, brats, live entertainment, and a street-long celebration that blends classic German traditions with the energy of the nightlife district.
