The 2010 Mt. Adams Oktoberfest will include authentic Bavarian music, dancing, food, and beer. The free outdoor street festival will take place Pavillion Street (map) which will be closed to traffic. The festival is being presented by Moerlein Lagers & Ales who will be proudly serving their seasonal Fifth & Vine Oktoberfest Marzen.

Eight nearby bars including Aliveone, Blind Lemon, Crowley’s, Longworth’s, Monk’s Cove, Mt. Adams Pavilion, Tavern on the Hill, and Yesterday’s Old Time Saloon will be participating in the Oktoberfest celebration.

The event will take place from 6pm to 10pm on Wednesday, September 15 in Cincinnati’s historic hilltop Mt. Adams neighborhood. Automobile parking will be available at nearby garages and lots, but availability is expected to be limited.
