The 2026 Violet Crown Oktober(ish)fest is a German-inspired beer festival that brings a lively fall celebration to Austin. Held at Violet Crown Community Works, it features beer from 20 local craft breweries, sausages, food trucks, live music and family-friendly activities. Strap on your dirndl or lederhosen and join in the fun. It's free to attend, and proceeds benefit neighborhood projects. Bring the whole crew, grab a bite and enjoy a cheerful afternoon.
