Maymont Bier-Garden

  • Maymont 1700 Hampton Street Richmond, VA, 23220 United States (map)

Toast the fall with friends and family at Bier-Garden on the Carriage House Lawn at Maymont! This two-day German-style festival is the perfect way to join in the world’s largest folk festival without traveling to Munich!  

Wear your lederhosen or dirndl, or come as you are! Revelers of all ages will find a festive scene with lively music, German folk dancers, yard games, and an authentic Marketplatz featuring local vendors selling artisanal treats and gifts. Bring the kids for an afternoon of crafts, games, entertainment and more in the Kinderzone.  

On the entertainment stage, DJ BearBonez will spin festival tunes all afternoon, with performances by juggler Jonathan Austin, the Hirschjager dancers and Fritz’s Polka Band. Don’t miss the dachshund costume contest and parade, hosted by the Dachshund Enlightenment Foundation.  

Bier-Garden admission includes entry to The Robins Nature Center from 11:30am-5pm, so you may explore and learn while you're at Maymont!
