Greetings from Cape Coral, FL — The German American Social Club of Cape Coral proudly announces the 40th Annual Cape Coral Oktoberfest, Southwest Florida’s signature celebration of German culture, cuisine, and community spirit. The festival returns for two weekends — October 17–19 and October 24–26, 2025 — at 2101 SW Pine Island Road, Cape Coral.

For four decades, Oktoberfest has brought together families and friends from across Florida, the US, and the World to enjoy the sights, sounds, and flavors of Bavaria. This year’s milestone celebration promises to be the biggest yet, featuring authentic German food, imported beer, bands from Bavaria, and nonstop dancing — from traditional polkas to the Bobb, Fliegerlied, and of course, the chicken dance.

The festival grounds will feature three music stages, three dance floors, and continuous performances from our German bands and popular local musicians. Guests can enjoy homemade-style dishes such as schnitzel, bratwurst, and pretzels, along with American favorites from local food trucks, Or enjoy a traditional meal inside the Von Steuben Hall. As always, a full selection of German and domestic beverages, and this year, local craft breweries join in the fun!   

Families will love the carnival area, rides, and games, while shoppers browse handcrafted goods, souvenirs, and Oktoberfest collectibles. Admission is $8 in advance or $10 at the gate, with free admission for children 12 and under. Parking is free, and the event runs rain or shine.

In honor of the 40th anniversary, guests upgrade their experience with VIP Passes (starting at $100), available online only at capecoraloktoberfest.com/vip-passes. VIP access includes a private seating area, with VIP access only, bar and restrooms, and expedited entry. Passes are limited and do sell out!

Ein Prosit der Gemütlichkeit!
