“Brat-Tober” is coming on Friday, Sept. 20–Sunday, Sept. 22 to the Crystal Grand Music Theater, according to WMTV15. “The world’s largest brat fest” returns as a makeup event after rainy weather stunted 2024’s annual Brat Fest over Memorial Day Weekend in Madison.
The festival will offer a variety of brats and beer, and more than 25 bands will perform throughout the weekend, with ticketed events on Friday and Saturday and free live music on Sunday. With an indoor venue, festivities will proceed regardless of weather conditions.
The festival typically sees roughly 1,300 volunteers who earn $12 hourly to be donated to charities of their choice.
