The 8th Annual Westoberfest

Craft Beer & Family Fall Festival

Saturday, October 4, 2025

12:00 PM - 6:00 PM (Tasting Tent 1:00 - 5:00 PM)

Westoberfest Craft Beer and Fall Festival returns on Saturday, October 4, from 12 to 6 PM for the eighth year, promising a day of craft beer delights, live music, and community camaraderie in the heart of downtown Westport. Beer enthusiasts can indulge in a diverse selection of over 50 local and regional beers. From crisp lagers and bold IPAs to rich stouts and refreshing non-alcoholic drinks, there’s something to please every palate at this year’s event.

This festival promises more than fantastic brews; it will also feature delicious food and lively music. Local culinary favorites (click here) will serve mouthwatering treats to satisfy any appetite, while Dan Tressler and One Bad Oyster provide live musical performances for an entertaining event. In addition to the exceptional lineup of breweries, festival-goers can unleash their competitive spirit by participating in stein-holding and pumpkin chunkin' events hosted by CBS News Weather Anchor and Westport resident Lonnie Quinn. Join us for an unforgettable day of sipping, savoring, and celebrating!

This year, the Upper Sigrid Shultz lot will feature the Tasting Tent, while the lower lot remains the heart of Westoberfest with live music, food vendors, family activities, and more. Just like last year, Elm Street will be lined with vendors offering a variety of products and services.

Westoberfest is made possible in partnership with The Grapevine and Castle Wine & Spirits.
