To experience a fun and unique beer drinking event this weekend, check out the The Village at Palisades Tahoe.
The Village will come alive for the annual Oktoberfest on Saturday, Sept. 28. The event runs from noon to 6 p.m. The annual Palisades Tahoe Oktoberfest now features the authentic Erdinger Weissbier, new VIP packages, and expanded non-alcoholic options from our German partners at Paulaner – including Paulaner Sunset, Sunset Zero and Weizen-Radler.
The Village will transform into the largest Bavarian playground in North Lake Tahoe, complete with authentic German beer and food, Bavarian music and dance, plus the popular Oktobergames. Throughout the day, enjoy live entertainment by Joe Smiell’s 20 Piece Bavarian Band, the Almenrausch Schuhplattler Dance Troop, the Sierra Alphorns, and the Alpentanzer Schuhplattler Dance Troop, accompanied by the Alpentanz Kapelle Band.
