Oktoberfest – our official sendoff to summer, and salute to the arrival of autumn, will take place at ALEX AND ANI City Center in downtown Providence this year! Join us for our annual reunion of friends enjoying the tastes, sights, and sounds of our little Bavaria in Rhode Island. Seasonal brews, and savory German cuisine compliment the lively and spirited sound of music spilling from the Biergartens.  Did you know that Oktoberfest in Germany actually starts in September? This year we take a cue from our German friends and kick off the Oktoberfest season in RI with an earlier “Fest”!
