Prost to the most wonderful time of year—join Waterline Marina Resort & Beach Club for its Inaugural Oktoberfest 2018. The festivities will take place on the outdoor patio of Waterline’s signature restaurant Eliza Ann’s Coastal Kitchen, as well as inside the Plimsoll Ballroom and on the pool deck for breezy October celebrations. With ticket purchase, guests can enjoy a true German-inspired biergarten buffet menu including beer-braised brats, Weiner schnitzel, Bavarian salted pretzels, black forest cake and many more authentic goodies. But what’s a schnitzel without a refreshing Hefeweizen or Dunkel to knock it back? With the purchase of an adult ticket, guests will also receive a complimentary beer, house wine or well liquor. 

Lederhosen and dirndl attire optional, but if you’re feeling a swim, slip on your bathing suit underneath. Festival attendees are encouraged to stay for full access to the luxury pool and enjoy their Saturday at the marina-based resort. And in true Bavarian fashion, live German entertainment will be provided, as well as games including ping pong, cornhole and life-size Jenga for the whole family to feel a part of the international folk funfair here in Florida.

Saturday, October 13, 12pm-5pm.
