Oktoberfest

 Smithvilles Oktoberfest has become one of the best local traditions to welcome in the fall!
 October 7th and 8th 2023 from 10am-5pm

 Smithville presents over 100 juried crafters, an International food court, live music, kids activities, non-Profit organizations and more for Oktoberfest. All of this food and fun plus The Villages 60 Shoppes, Train and Carousel Rides, Paddle boats, 7 Eateries, and Antique Arcades!
 

Each year, the Historic Smithville Village becomes host to a giant celebration of authentic autumnal food, beer, and music.

The Village gets hopping with hundreds of visitors who are ready for Fall and fun.  In addition to the over 60 regular store fronts, the festival brings in an additional 100 vendors who set up shop in the parking lot. Filled with handmade crafts, clothing and jewelry there is something to please everyone . Throughout the village you will also find nonprofit organizations with raffles, information and items for sale. There are a lot of exciting kids activities such as the famous giant jumping house, duck pond game, and face painting!

Your plan for Oktoberfest Day:

 After filling up on our fabulous international food court it’s time for some fun and, of course, shopping. Let the kids show off their cool new face-paint or balloon animal.  Learn about the joys of adopting a Greyhound, have a family portrait done caricature-style, join the ducks in lake Meone on a paddleboat, or get a jump on some holiday shopping.

Oktoberfest in the Historic Smithville Village is a great time for the entire family–even the dog! No matter what style, hobby or interest, there’s something for everyone at this fun-filled autumn festival. Check out our Facebook page to stay up to date with pictures, questions, and more details on the festival.
