Either opt to pay-as-you-go through the festival or pre-purchase a VIP package that includes perks like private bathrooms, a Bavarian buffet and six beer tickets.
There will be 10 German beers on tap, and all beer drinkers can grab a cold pour in glassware straight from Germany.
Besides all the food and drink, there will be traditional dance performances, Oom-pah music, flower crowns, face painting and a competition with a $500 prize.
