I have attended the St. Timothy Oktoberfest the last several years. It gets better every year and the Goetta sandwiches, cream puffs and fried potatoes are amazing!
I strongly suggest including the Louisville German-American Club Oktoberfest Sep 11th-12th. Having been to many authentic Germanic festivals in surrounding states and this is definitely the best we have attended.
