Grab your lederhosen or dirndls and get ready to celebrate! Join Breaking Boundaries for a festive afternoon in Historic Downtown Campbell for the award-winning Campbell Oktoberfest.

We’ll enjoy over 100 arts and crafts booths, live music, a lively Biersch Garten, and delicious Bavarian pretzels. Because festivals can get very busy, we'll aim to stay together as a single group, but will split into smaller groups if necessary to ensure everyone's comfort.

🕑 Schedule

• 10:00 AM: Meetup time! Gather at the meeting spot for check-in and to divide into smaller guided groups as necessary.
• 10:30 AM: The festival officially opens its music and booth areas. We will stroll through the artisan booths, listen to live bands, and explore the street performances at a relaxed, comfortable pace.
• 1:00 PM: Lunch time! We'll gather at the accessible seating areas near the Community Stage and food vendors to eat, drink, and chat.
• 2:00 PM: Scheduled end of meetup. You are welcome to stay and enjoy the remaining entertainment on your own until 5:00 PM!

🥨 Food & Drink
We will be gathering for lunch at the accessible seating zones near the Community Stage. There will be extensive German and standard festival food, as well as Gordon Biersch beer and ales.

♿️ Accessibility

• Terrain: The festival is set along paved downtown streets. There are no steep hills, making it highly navigable. However, be aware of uneven pavement, temporary vendor ramps, and watch your step.
• Restrooms: Accessible portable restrooms are provided throughout the festival footprint. ADA-compliant restrooms are also available inside the Campbell Library and City Hall.
• Crowds: Paved areas can get highly congested in the afternoon.
