Lagers in Lawrence 2024

The city of Lawrence, in partnership with Indiana On Tap, is excited to present the return of the wildly popular 'Lagers in Lawrence' Oktoberfest. The 2024 event (now in its 7th year) will take place on Saturday, Sept. 21st from 2pm - 6pm. It will again be one of the largest and premier Oktoberfests in all of central Indiana.

The event returns to the Fort Ben Cultural Campus. This picturesque campus features the newly-renovated historic theater, a visual arts center, an artist walk, a history walk, an amphitheater, and the world's largest set of musical swings, all surrounded by stunning public art displays and green spaces. Tickets at www.lagersinlawrence.com

Attendees will be allowed UNLIMITED POURS of more than 100+ craft beverages. The event will feature all styles of beer in addition to the popular Lager styles. And not to worry, there will be plenty of pretzels.

Back by popular demand, we'll again be featuring one of Indy's best DJ's who will be playing all of your favorite dance hits AND Oktoberfest/Polka hits on stage. He's incredible!

For you food lovers, get excited! We'll be hosting several great food vendors once again!

Returning in 2024: We're excited to again host Oktoberfest-style, Weiner Dog Racing! That's right, Dachshunds of all shapes and sizes from around central Indiana will be racing in multiple heats throughout the event in the 'Running of the Weiners,' with the winners competing in the championship heat at the end for the honor of 'Fastest Weiner.' Trust us--if you've never seen it, you don't want to miss it!
