In keeping with the Munich tradition, the Soulard Oktoberfest also will feature an array of classic Oktoberfest dishes, including bratwurst, rotisserie chicken, roasted turkey legs, potato pancakes and traditional Piller Pretzels imported from Munich.
Kenrick’s Meat Market and Catering, one of St. Louis’ oldest and finest butcher shops, will prepare wies’n hendl, parsley-stuffed chicken basted with butter, sprinkled with salt and cooked on a rotisserie. Kenrick’s also will provide open-grilled bratwurst cooked under coal, served with fresh homemade sauerkraut and mild hot mustard imported from Germany, along with barbecue ribs, which are a favorite at the Munich festival.
In the festival’s ongoing effort to mirror the authenticity of the legendary Munich festival, Soulard Oktoberfest is featuring a special state-of-the-art VIP tent that exemplifies a traditional Munich festival tent.
“Our VIP package this year is better than ever, and we’ve created an experience that rivals the famous Munich festival,” McKinstry said.
Soulard Oktoberfest general admission costs $5. VIP tickets for a three-day Uberpass cost $125; cost $70 for Friday; cost $85 for Saturday; and cost $50 for Sunday.
The 2012 Soulard Oktoberfest will be held across two blocks east from the Soulard Market on Third and Lafayette streets in the Kosciusko area.
