Nothing beats a cold beer and a hot brat. Add to the fun with live music, traditional German dancing and fun for the whole family. Oktoberfest is back and Taylor Morrison’s Eastern Divisions are ready to don their Dirndls and boogie down to the sounds of live Oompah bands.
From new homes in Atlanta to Florida real estate and back up to Charlotte, the East is ready to rock.
P.S. Don’t be fooled by the name. Check dates carefully as some cities celebrate Oktoberfest in September.
