FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
🎉 Don’t Miss the FIRST-EVER Oceanside Oktoberfest – A Celebration of Music, Food, Beer & Community at the Oceanside Pier!
Oceanside, CA – October 11, 2025 – Oceanside is raising its steins and turning up the music for the inaugural Oceanside Oktoberfest, an all-day coastal celebration blending the best of Bavarian tradition with San Diego’s vibrant culture.
Hosted at the Oceanside Pier Amphitheater (301 The Strand N), this one-of-a-kind festival will run from 11 AM to 6 PM and promises an unforgettable mix of live music, craft beer, local food, and community spirit.
This event is proudly presented with the support of Blowfish Tequila, San Diego’s hottest up-and-coming tequila brand, and organized in partnership with Black Belt Records and The A-List.
Event founder Eric Edwards, of AList Productions and famously known as the “Dancing Groundskeeper” of the San Diego Padres, explained why this year marks a milestone for North County:
“We wanted to bring an Oktoberfest to the beautiful Oceanside Pier and Beach area. Most of the other Oktoberfests are in La Mesa, El Cajon, and Ocean Beach, so hosting our first event up in North County felt like the perfect idea.”

Edwards added:
“Oceanside has always had its own unique energy, and we wanted to capture that by creating a festival that feels true to this community. Our hope is that Oceanside Oktoberfest becomes an annual tradition where people can come together to enjoy great music, amazing food and drinks, and celebrate right on the beach.”
