### 👋 The Meetup

This is a come-and-go social event, so don't worry if you can't stay the entire time. We'll meet up, grab some food and drinks, wander around the festival, and enjoy the festivities together.
Bring your friends, bring your appetite, and bring your best Prost! 🍻
30 years of Oktoberfest is worth celebrating — let's raise a stein to Campbell! 🇩🇪🍺

#### The Stein Holding Contest

This is, in my opinion, the highlight of the event. Held on both Saturday and Sunday of the festival. Watch men and women futility try to hold a 1L stein filled with beer at shoulder level, arm straight.

Held in the Biersch Garten at 3pm both days of the festival, thirty men and thirty women compete in separate contests. Judged by Dan Gordon, winners receive a glass boot stein.

Sign up to participate is currently closed. However, Ten spots for men and ten spots for women are available for pre-purchase each day. Check it out.
