WurstFest New Braunfels 2025

Wurstfest, Best time! WurstFest is a favorite annual event in New Braunfels, Texas - where this town gets together and celebrates their German traditions! Yes, there's a ton of German beer, food, & music! We'll be enjoying the views of the hill country while socializing and having a great time. Prost to that!

Please note, this event is not "hosted" by our social club. We are simply "Meeting up" at WurstFest to hang out as a friend group. Tickets and official festival information can be found here.

Please feel free to drop-in or make your own plans for the entire weekend. Festival runs 2 days!

Tickets:

Tickets are available for purchase for $15 per day/person at this link

Please note, all attendees are welcome to make their festival experience what they want. You can stay in groups, you can do your own thing. You can do the festival for

an hour and head home. You can stay all day and night! This is more or less a "self-

hosted" event and we will be facilitating a group experience at the events on the

above itinerary and through our group chat.

Parking:

Information from the WurstFest website:

Parking in the area adjacent to the festival grounds is limited. Check out our map for possible locations. High attendance nights can become full early on in the day so please plan accordingly.

The absolute best way to visit the festival is to use the Park and Ride at the Comal County Fairgrounds and jump on our shuttle service.  $10 per person ages 13+ and free for children 12 and under. Available daily through out the festival dates.

Recommended Hotel:

For members of our group who wish to stay for Saturday night (or make it a whole weekend!) we know how nice it can be to stay at a hotel or be in the same area as the rest of our group so you can socialize & hang out all weekend!

Country Inn & Suites by Radisson, New Braunfels, TX

1483 I-35, New Braunfels, TX 78130

What To Wear, Bring, Etc:

Attendees of Wurst Fest often dress in the Oktoberfest best! Feel free to dress on theme - Bavarian, German, beer & sausage obsessed, whatever!

Please dress for the weather and walking! Festival is rain or shine! This is central Texas - It could be chilly or hot out. Dressing in layers is recommended. Wear comfortable shoes so you can easily navigate the festival and plan for a lot of walking. Stay hydrated by drinking water often. I recommend bringing bug spray, sunscreen, and sun glasses.

Please check the Wurst Fest website for venue rules and additional information. We highly recommend purchasing tickets in advance, especially for out-of-town attendees.

Please drink responsibly and consider using Uber to/from the festival or a designated driver.
