OAKtoberfest: Popular Fall Event in the Central Adirondacks.

Are you searching for a fun fall festival in the Adirondacks? Visit Speculator in September.

Beer and wine sampling is just one of the activities on tap at Oak Mountain’s annual Oktoberfest celebration.

Oak Mountain in Speculator hosts one of fall’s best events: their annual OAKtoberfest. This year’s event will take place on Sunday, September 28, from Noon to 4 pm.

Fun, family-friendly fall activities are on tap at OAKtoberfest.

A ski center in the winter months, Oak Mountain comes alive in the fall with one of the best Oktoberfests in the Central Adirondacks.

It’s the perfect time to take a scenic ride on their chair lift for an unparalleled view of the fall foliage.

Peruse the craft market, featuring local artisans and vendors like Paca Gardens, which sells beautiful Alpaca socks, sweaters, and accessories, as well as Nevitrek Snowshoes.

Excellent food and drink from local Adirondack vendors.

Food and beverage options abound at Speculator’s OAKtoberfest. Oak Mountain’s Acorn Pub and Eatery will serve fall favorites and a full bar. For more casual fare, try their mountainside and Oak Mt. concession stands. Oak Mountain Bakery will also offer a variety of delicious treats.

CampStore! Lake Pleasant’s magical marketplace will be offering cotton candy, kettle corn, and delicious lemonade.

Of course, no Oktoberfest would be complete without tasting local beers and wines. One of the Adirondack’s highly acclaimed breweries, Paradox Brewery, will be on hand, as well as Burlington’s Zero Gravity Craft Brewery, Josh Cellars (the California winery founded by a NY Upstater), and more to be announced by OAKtoberfest organizers.

Great live music and entertainment.

OAKtoberfest features excellent live music all day long, starting with The Altered Tones, a four-piece band from Long Lake and Tupper Lake, covering songs from the ‘90s and beyond. They will play from Noon until 2 pm.

Also on hand will be the Insolent Willies, an upstate NY roots-rock band, who will perform original tunes and eclectic interpretations of classic songs. They take the stage from 2:30 to 4:30 pm.
