SF Oktoberfest Changes Format on Saturday!

It's almost that time again. Oktoberfest By The Bay will be held in San Francisco's Ft. Mason on October 2nd through the 5th.

And in case you haven't heard, the 'fest will have a slightly different format on Saturday this year.

The hours for Thursday and Friday evenings will remain the same as in previous years. Likewise, Sunday will run during the same hours as years past as well.

But Saturday will be split into two sessions; 11AM to 5PM, and 6PM to Midnight. The event has become so popular that the organizers are trying this approach to try to accommodate as many people as possible.

If you want to purchase tickets for Saturday, you'll have to decide which session you want to attend. If you attend the 11AM to 5PM session, you will have to leave by 5PM so the hall can be made ready for the second session starting at 6PM.

Tickets are available online at oktoberfestbythebay.com. Once tickets are sold out, however, there will be no additional tickets available at the door. So get online now and buy your tickets.

Of course, whether you attend on Thursday, Friday, either session on Saturday, or on Sunday, the Oktoberfest By The Bay is "the" place to be!

See you there.

The Internationals™ at Lugano Swiss Bistro

The Internationals™ will play at Lugano Swiss Bistro in Carmel this Friday, August 1st. If you haven't been to Lugano, treat yourself to a great meal and, of course, some fantastic music this Friday evening.

Reservations are strongly encouraged because Lugano is a small venue and space is limited.

Enjoy!

Ft. Mason 'Fest Date Change for 2008!

Mark your calendars now... the 2008 Oktoberfest By The Bay will be on the first weekend in October!

This is a recent change, and a departure from years past -- the 'fest has heretofore been on the 2nd or 3rd weekend in October -- but here at the CBB Blog, we strive to give you 'fest updates as they happen! (And you should expect no less from a Blog that fearlessly uses the word "heretofore"!)

So block out October 2-5, 2008 on your calendar, start picking out your tracht, and practice ordering beer in Hoch Deutsch, because...

You have even less time to wait than you thought before Oktoberfest By The Bay is here once again!

Prost!
