Come join the Rialto and Gute Laune for their first ever Oktoberfest! With the MSU Pep Rally happening up the street, it’s a perfect time to come slake your thirst with some fun games and great food! We will be hosting a Beer Garden, Stein Holding/Pretzel Throwing Competitions, and a log sawing demonstration with the Absaroka-Beartooth Wilderness Foundation! Don’t miss out on the fun inside the Rialto with North Fork Crossing! The outside events are open to all ages, with the concert inside the Rialto being a 21+ Ticketed Event.

German Stein Holding is a tradition that goes back to the first Oktoberfest during the 14th century! Our Stein Holding Competition is open to ages 21+, with a grand prize for the winner! See official rules here.

We will be hosting a Pretzel Tossing Competition for all ages to participate! The goal is to see how many pretzels you can make onto the stick in a 1-minute time frame!

The Absaroka-Beartooth Wilderness Foundationwill be demonstrating the art of German Log Sawing. A wedding tradition that shows the unity of the couple by having them saw a log in half together as their first obstacle to overcome as a couple! Guests will be allowed to try for themselves with the help of the ABWF Team!

Gute Laune is the Best-Wurst Bar here in Bozeman, MT that offers classic German beer and food. Gute Laune is German. It means good mood. The kind of mood you feel sitting down on a restaurant bench with past, present, and future good friends. Come join us for a stein, and some great food during the festivities! The Restaurant and Bar is open from 5:00pm-12:00am Wednesday- Sunday.

Join us inside the Rialto from 8pm-10pm with North Fork Crossing! With their “Evolution of String Band” Blue Grass sound, they are sure to get you moving and grooving!
