Dubuque Oktoberfest

Dubuque Oktoberfest celebrates its 16th year on Saturday, September 13, 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. at the Q Casino + Resort’s Back Waters Stage. All are welcome to attend the festival, which includes music, food, drinks, entertainment and games, including the ever-popular Wiener Dog Races and Parade and the Stein Holding Contest. Admission is free to Dubuque Oktoberfest, and donations are welcome at the gate for Camp Albrecht Acres, which received 100% of the proceeds. Two large festival tents will be on the grounds so Dubuque Oktoberfest happens rain or shine.
