Deadwood Oktoberfest

Deadwood Oktoberfest brings a full weekend of fall fun to Historic Main Street with wiener dog races, beer barrel games, a brat cookoff, a German car show, and live polka music. The event draws families, groups, and anyone who wants a lively mix of food, games, and street-level entertainment in the heart of town. Key Details Admission: Free to attend. Some activities may have separate entry fees or age limits. Tickets/Registration: Registration is used for select activities such as the Wiener Dog Races and Beer Barrel Games. Beer Barrel Games participation is limited and open to ages 21 and up. Parking: Parking in Deadwood is limited near Main Street. Free parking is available at the Sherman Street Lot and the Deadwood Welcome Center lot. Metered parking, parking ramps, and the Deadwood Trolley help with access during busy event times. Weather considerations: Much of the event takes place outdoors on Main Street, so layers and comfortable walking shoes help with changing fall conditions.
