Celebrate Oktoberfest with pretty printables featuring a Sunflower theme.
Celebrating Oktoberfest has now become a family tradition.
Fall is my favorite season so Oktoberfest has quickly become a fan favorite in our household.
We love cooking up a bunch of brats and inviting family over to celebrate a Fall afternoon while enjoying some brews.
Oktoberfest Party Table
Like last year’s Wurst Oktoberfest party, we hosted it on our back patio, which is underneath our deck.
I used a similar setup as last year, with a portable folding table and my trusty, though sadly nearing its demise, potting table.
I always enjoy thinking about party themes and after visiting a sunflower field decided to incorporate Sunflowers as the main decor.
I found these super affordable – and adorable – tissue paper sunflowers on Amazon that, while a bit time-consuming to fluff up, were super easy to use.
Beyond that, I leaned into my favorite party decor, printables. I also added a bouquet of fresh flowers and an Oktoberfest-themed table cover. This simple party decor goes a long way to bring out the spirit of the party vibe!
A “Prost” banner is hung on the wall over the food table. I used a small hole punch in each corner of the flag and strung some baker’s twine through to assemble it.

Oktoberfest Party Food
I am a creature of habit so once I find what works, I replicate it as much as possible.
Our party menu included:
- Bratwurst with festive toppings such as sauerkraut
- Soft pretzels served with cheesy dip
- Massive Charcuterie board
- Potato salad
- Veggie Tray
- Cupcakes
You’ll notice some of these items are store-bought and some are still in their containers! Gasp!
Honestly, for real parties, I decorate what I can and leave the rest. I have three children I am usually wrangling while I’m party prepping. Don’t let perfect be the enemy of good. The most important part is enjoying the party!
This massive charcuterie board was a ton of fun to put together and looked amazing! While it does take a lot to fill it, the end result is a delicious snack track.
My board is from Pier 1 and no longer available but there are several similar options and sizes available from other retailers. If it’s not food-safe to start, you may need to season it or lay down parchment paper under your food.
I love cute little signs to incorporate the food into the decor. It’s also a nice way to share what ingredients might be included.
I filled the board with three different types of pretzels, beer cheese dip, a few different types of salami, pastrami, a selection of cheeses, pickles, jams, dried apricots, crackers, and bread.
