The 12th annual Oktoberfest will take place on September 14 (6pm-11pm) and September 15 (12pm-11pm). The successful two-day event takes place in the Depot District on both sides of the Metra tracks between Oak Park and Home Avenues. In addition to record attendance of residents and visitors over the two days, it includes lots of food, live music, amusement rides, kids' activities, crafters, vendors and a beer garden.
This is a great family event. Just ask TimeOut Chicago Kids!
