Prost! Raise a Stein at Rocktobierfest – Mocofeed

Rocktobierfest returns to Rockville Town Center on Saturday, Sept. 26, for a Bavarian-themed bash.

The eighth edition of the free festival, from 11 a.m.-5 p.m., will include two stages of live music, food, beer sales by local breweries and a merchant shopping area. This popular event attracts nearly 8,000 people each year. 

As part of this year’s celebrations, the city will bury an America250 time capsule preserving memories, Rockville history and messages for future generations. The time capsule will remain sealed for 50 years and be opened in 2076 as part of the nation’s 300th anniversary celebration.
