When are you coming?

The Northeast goes Bavarian

Oktoberfest, the NEEP way.

Northfest is NEEP Collective's annual Oktoberfest celebration—a two-day patio takeover built around great bier, food, live music, games, vendors and community.

Admission covers festival entry only. Food, bier, drinks and merchandise will be available separately throughout the weekend. The daily schedule, entertainment lineup and special experiences will be announced as NorthFest gets closer.

Games, dances & bragging rights

Join the fest.

Come dressed to compete—or just cheer from the bier garden. NorthFest brings Bavarian traditions, delightfully ridiculous races and plenty of reasons to get out of your seat.

Last year looked like this

One big, beautiful bier hall outside.

Steins in the air, lederhosen on the patio and a crowd ready to celebrate. Northfest turns NEEP into a little slice of Bavaria with an El Paso point of view.

Best enjoyed with friends.
