Beaches Oktoberfest 2026 in Jacksonville Beach: October 16 and 17

Beaches Oktoberfest returns to Seawalk Pavilion in Jacksonville Beach on October 16 and 17, 2026. It is North Florida's largest Oktoberfest, now in its 11th year, and general admission is free.

  • When: Friday, October 16, 5 to 10 PM; Saturday, October 17, 12 to 10 PM
  • Where: Seawalk Pavilion, Jacksonville Beach
  • Cost: Free general admission; beverage experience, VIP, and Premium VIP upgrades sold separately

What to expect

Three stages of live music, food trucks, German beer, and a 2026 lineup that includes Sister Hazel and The Hip Abduction. Free entry gets you in the gate for all of it. If you want the beer tasting side of things, a private lounge, or complimentary drinks, those come as paid upgrade tickets stacked on top of free admission, not a cover charge.

Before you go

Jax Beach parking disappears fast on festival weekends. Rideshare, bike, or park several blocks out and walk. There is a single entry point on 1st Avenue North with bag checks, so travel light.
