Plant Riverside District will host its annual Oktoberfest celebration from September 26 through October 18, bringing Bavarian cheer to Savannah’s riverfront. The multi-week festival offers something new each weekend, from competitions like the Pretzel Toss and Stein Holding Challenge to the fan-favorite Wiener Dog Races, which return October 11.
