Your Super-Comprehensive Oktoberfest & Other Beer- & Drink-centric Celebration Guide for DC, Maryland & Virginia

Long-time DCPA+CJ viewers are aware that we get fired up for the Oktoberfest season, and enjoy highlighting O-fest & similar celebrations that pop up in DC, Maryland & Virginia this time of year as part of Friday postings.

We'll continue to make that operation part of Friday posts throughout the Fall, but we'll also try and collect as many of them as we can here, so you can plan ahead accordingly (and so we're not hustling to find them on Thursday evenings or Friday mornings).

What have we missed?  Let us know, and check back for further updates.
