Get ready to raise a stein in Baltimore. Baltimore Oktoberfest 2026 is coming to Guilford Hall Brewery on Saturday, September 19, 2026, from 11 AM to close, bringing a full day of German-inspired beer, food, live music, competitions, and family-friendly fun to the heart of the city.


Located at 1611 Guilford Avenue in Baltimore, Guilford Hall Brewery is a natural destination for an Oktoberfest celebration. The brewery combines European-style dining and Bavarian-inspired beer with Baltimore's own brewing heritage, all inside a historic 1898 building in the Station North Arts District.


What to Expect at Baltimore Oktoberfest 2026


Oktoberfest is a celebration of beer, food, music, and community, and Guilford Hall Brewery is bringing those traditions together for an unforgettable Saturday in Baltimore.


Guests can look forward to a packed lineup of activities throughout the celebration, including:

  • Stein holding competitions

Whether you're coming for the competitions, the food, the music, or simply a great beer with friends, there will be plenty happening throughout the day.


Celebrate Oktoberfest at a European-Style Baltimore Brewery


The setting makes this celebration especially fitting. Guilford Hall Brewery brings European flavors from Bavaria to Baltimore through its food and brewing program, while its beer selection reflects both traditional brewing influences and modern Baltimore tastes.


German-style beer is already an important part of the Guilford Hall experience. The brewery produces styles such as its Hefeweizen, a classic German-style wheat beer with notes of banana, vanilla, and clove, alongside lagers and other Baltimore-brewed selections.


For Oktoberfest, that connection between German brewing tradition and Baltimore culture creates an experience that feels right at home at Guilford Hall.


Food, Beer, Music and Oktoberfest Traditions


A great Oktoberfest is about more than what's in your stein. It's about gathering around the table, enjoying hearty food, listening to music, and sharing the experience with the people around you.


Guilford Hall Brewery's European-style dining experience makes food an important part of the celebration. Pair Oktoberfest flavors with a cold beer, watch the competitions, enjoy the live music, and make a full day of it.


And if you think you have what it takes, the stein holding competition, stein races, and sausage eating contest give you a chance to become part of the action.

Yes. Baltimore Oktoberfest 2026 at Guilford Hall Brewery is designed as a family-friendly event, making it an option for families as well as groups of friends, couples, craft beer enthusiasts, and Baltimore locals looking for something fun to do.


Bring the crew, enjoy the activities and live entertainment, and experience Oktoberfest together without having to leave Baltimore.
