It is usually held during the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/thelocalgirl.com\/bergen\/things-to-do-fall-bergen-county-nj\/\" rel=\"noopener\">fall season<\/a> from late September to early October. The first-ever Oktoberfest was held on October 12th, 1810, to celebrate the marriage of the prince of Bavaria to Princess Therese von Sachsen-Hildburghausen. It lasted for five days and ended with a horse race that was known as \u201cTheresienwiese.\u201d The race was held again one year after the celebration, but a state agricultural fair was added. By 1818, food and drink were also added to this event, creating the Oktoberfest we know today, consisting of German food and beer, and celebrating German culture as a whole.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong><em>Read More: <a href=\"https:\/\/thelocalgirl.com\/bergen\/things-to-do-fall-bergen-county-nj\/\">A Guide to Fall Activities in Bergen County, New Jersey<\/a><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<h2>New Jersey Oktoberfest Events<\/h2>\n<p>[tribe_events tribe-bar=&#8221;false&#8221; start_date=&#8221;2025-09-17&#8243; end_date=&#8221;2025-10-5&#8243; view=&#8221;list&#8221; category=&#8221;oktoberfest&#8221; debug=&#8221;false&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong><em>See More: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.themontclairgirl.com\/best-hayrides-north-jersey\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The Best Hayrides in Northern New Jersey<\/a><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Follow @thebergencountygirl on\u00a0<a class=\"c-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/thebergencountygirl\/?hl=en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-stringify-link=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/thehobokengirl\/?hl=en\" data-sk=\"tooltip_parent\">Instagram<\/a>\u00a0for the latest Bergen County updates,\u00a0<a class=\"c-link\" href=\"https:\/\/thebergencountygirl.myflodesk.com\/uu0mgpgtm0\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-stringify-link=\"https:\/\/view.flodesk.com\/pages\/62f92877e5ea6b3d8aea50ad\" data-sk=\"tooltip_parent\">sign up for our email list here<\/a>\u00a0that shares everything you missed each week, and check out our\u00a0<a class=\"c-link\" href=\"https:\/\/thelocalgirl.com\/bergen\/events\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-stringify-link=\"https:\/\/www.hobokengirl.com\/events\/\" data-sk=\"tooltip_parent\">events calendar<\/a>, which has over 30+ events weekly to peruse.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/thelocalgirl.com\/bergen\/local-events-news\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-120163\" src=\"https:\/\/www.themontclairgirl.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/7-800x267.jpg\" alt=\"read more button\" width=\"450\" height=\"150\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thelocalgirl.com\/bergen\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2022\/02\/7-800x267.jpg 800w, https:\/\/thelocalgirl.com\/bergen\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2022\/02\/7-1024x341.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/thelocalgirl.com\/bergen\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2022\/02\/7-768x256.jpg 768w, https:\/\/thelocalgirl.com\/bergen\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2022\/02\/7-1536x512.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/thelocalgirl.com\/bergen\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2022\/02\/7.jpg 1800w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 450px) 100vw, 450px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>happeningsOktoberfest is a German food and drink festival that made its way to the States.
