Oktoberfest Returns Once Again To Morristown

MORRIS TOWNSHIP, NJ — We may be a long way away from Germany, but that doesn't mean we can't celebrate Oktoberfest.

Get ready to celebrate the start of fall with family and friends at Hillside Hose Company's annual Oktoberfest event.

The beloved community event is back once again and will take place on Saturday, Oct. 7, at the Hillside Hose Company No. 1 firehouse, located at 132 Western Avenue in Morristown.

This fun-filled day will feature quality drinks, local bands, great food and both German and domestic beers on tap.

The event begins at 2 p.m. on Oct. 7 and will end at 8 p.m., officials said.

Despite its name, Oktoberfest is open to residents of all ages and encourages families to attend.

Hillside Hose Company No. 1 was created in 1914 by local residents and presently operates as Station 3 of the Morris Township Fire Department. They are one of five stations that comprise the Morris Township Fire Department.
