Raise a Stein With Coworkers During Oktoberfest

Why settle for grabbing a drink with coworkers after a day of meetings and events, when you could all raise a stein together and toast to San Antonio’s Oktoberfest tradition! San Antonio has a rich German heritage that comes together during September and October to say, “Prost, y’all!” (That’s how we cheers in Texas.) 

 

Some of the top Oktoberfest events include Six Flags’ Oktoberfest Food Festival, from September 6 to October 26, 2025, and Oktoberfest in La Villita, from September 19 to 21, 2025. Additionally, you can find live music and Oktoberfest parties at beer gardens across the city.

Catch a Breath of Fresh (Autumn) Air

Why hold up in conference rooms when your team has the opportunity to catch a breath of fresh autumn air? San Antonio’s average fall temperatures range from the low 50s to the upper 80s, making it the perfect opportunity for outdoor excursions.

 

Imagine brainstorming with the team as you explore 15 miles of inspiration along the famous San Antonio River Walk or hosting a breakout session in Hemisfair Park. And there is no better time to take a team building excursion out to the San Antonio Missions Historical Park!

 

Instead of chartering buses, the fall season provides the perfect opportunity to explore the city and get to and from meetings via scooter and bike rentals or chartering a Go Rio River Cruise to see the city in style.
