Did you miss out on this year’s Oktoberfest? If so, it’s not too late. Fairmont Washington, D.C., Georgetown’s Oktoberfest will take place beginning Monday, October 23rd through Friday, October 27th from
5:00 – 7:00 p.m.
The hotel’s courtyard will be transformed into a German Biergarten featuring a live grilling station, German music and draft beer. So, don your favorite lederhosen and dirndls or, just come as you are.
The grilling station will feature hotel chefs preparing a choice of Bauernwurst, a locally handcrafted German sausage and Weisswurst, a traditional Bavarian sausage, served with Kartoffelsalat, German potato salad, and a pretzel twist for just $5. A selection of traditional and spicy mustards will be available too.
Guests will also enjoy $5 drafts of Flying Dog Dogtoberbest Marzen Beer and other German beers throughout the week-long fest.
To kick off Fairmont’s Oktoberfest, a very Instagramable musician, Peter Giovani, will perform with his accordion on Monday, October 23rd, from 5 -7 p.m.
No reservations are required for Oktoberfest, seating is available on a first come basis. In the case of inclement weather, Oktoberfest will move into the lobby.
Get ready to bebop down below! Dupont Underground, the arts and cultural organization that lies beneath Washington, D.C.’s Dupont Circle, will host “Meet Me at the Underground: A Jazz Age Soiree” on Friday, October 27. The restored space will be a subterranean 1920’s-style speakeasy for the evening, with jazz musicians performing live, dramatic costumes of the era, and an art-deco-inspired beverage from neighboring Dupont restaurant, Firefly.
From 7:00-11:00 p.m., soiree attendees can dance the night away to lively tunes from jazz musician Dante Pope. International jazz vocalist Rochelle Rice will join Dante for a special performance and may even show guests how to snap their fingers like a true jazz enthusiast. Attendees are encouraged to dress the part with costumes inspired by the period.
Firefly’s Lead Bartender Brendan Ambrose will be composing a melodic masterpiece of his own. His riff on a jazz-era cocktail will be a feast for the senses featuring freshly-picked herbs and flowers from Firefly’s rooftop garden.
What’s the Secret Password?
One may argue a true speakeasy has a password, and “A Jazz Age Soiree” does not disappoint. Prior to dancing the jitterbug, partygoers are invited to Firefly for a special pre-show dinner menu. For $35, diners will receive an appetizer, an entrée, and a glass of house wine. Any guest that comes into the restaurant on Friday, October 27 with the password “UNDERGROUND” may receive the dinner deal.
“Meet Me at the Underground: A Jazz Age Soiree” is open to the public. Guests must be 21+ to attend. Tickets are $20 on Ticketfly, and $25 at the door.
