Stopped at the Cleveland Donauschwaben Sommer Oktoberfest in Olmsted Township, but it was just before some crazy weather was passing through.

I did manage to take a few pics, including some closeup of the grub you can partake in.

The festival continues tomorrow (Sunday).

SEPTEMBER FESTIVAL UPDATE

I’m trying to update September festivals on the Ohio Festival Guide and I can use your help.

https://ohiofestivals.net/ohio-festivals/

Asterisk next to the date (ie 9/1*) – I’m trying to confirm this year’s date

DISCONTINUED? – I’m not finding anything and think it’s over.

Let me know what’s missing and if something is wrong.

If you have info on festivals with asterisks or marked DISCONTINUED, that would be great too.

Thanks!
