A St. Ben’s Tradition
since 1966!

A celebration of community in the tradition of St. Ben's German Roots!

True to the customs of the Bavarian festival, St. Benedict’s OktoberFest promises entertainment for the whole family, with music, food, beverages, carnival rides and games!

Cheerful toasts of “Zum Wohl” and shouts of “Prost!” will resonate through the parish courtyard once more as we celebrate our German roots with the 58th Annual OktoberFest: October 4th through October 6th of 2024.

Proceeds from the festival are utilized to benefit local outreach, programming, and fund church operations, restoration and other Parish initiatives.
