The food and drink vendors for Oktoberfest Dallas have been announced, with one notable change.

A neighborhood tradition since 2014, Oktoberfest Dallas annually draws thousands of visitors to Flag Pole Hill for a day of music, beer and, of course, bratwurst. The Exchange Club of Lake Highlands, the organization behind the event, recently released the Oktoberfest food and beverage lineup as Sept. 27 draws closer.
Most of the vendors return from last year. The responsibility for brats has fallen to Strouderosa BBQ, while Dave Culwell’s team will grill schmurgers all day long and Cedar & Vine has signed up to bring festival bites. Aw Shucks will also return to bring a little surf to the festivities.
One notable change, however, comes with a shakeup in the pizza department. Cane Rosso’s mobile pizza ovens have been a fixture of Oktoberfest since it was at Lake Highlands Town Center. This year, however, Greenville Avenue Pizza Company will preside over the pies as the event’s pizza vendor.
Sam Adams and Vector Brewing will return as beer vendors, with Vector also serving wine. Oak Highlands Brewery, which is hosting its own series of Oktoberfest parties this year at its new Richardson location, will also set up its customary bar complete with TVs for college football.
Pre-sale event bands for Oktoberfest Dallas are available for discounted purchase. Tickets can also be purchased beforehand on the Exchange Club’s website.
Oktoberfest Dallas will take place on Sept. 27 at Flag Pole Hill Park.
