Peoria Oktoberfest: a brief local history.
In an effort to assist in the development of the RiverFront, the Peoria Park District took on the challenge of creating high quality, family-oriented events that would benefit the Peoria area and enhance the quality of life within the community.
The Peoria Park District and German-American Central Society united their efforts in 1996 to bring the first of the "signature events" planned for the RiverFront. Peoria's Oktoberfest" is the Midwestern equivalent of the Munich Oktoberfest.
