Marblefest 2024

Marblefest, which I consider Marble's best annual event, returns to their 111 location this Saturday, August 24. The event takes place from 12-10, with a $10 admission being charged after 2 pm.

The highlight of the event is under the Oktoberest-style tent, where they'll be pouring flights of your choice of 5 Oktoberfest-style lagers from 9 local breweries. Enjoy beers from Boxing Bear, Sidetrack, Nexus, La Cumbre, Tractor, Bosque, Canteen, Ex Novo, and Second Street. That's three more breweries than what you'll find at the actual Oktoberfest celebration in Germany. $12 for a flight.

Six bands on the bill Saturday:

Nathan Fox & Friends

Trinity Soul

Sweet Roll

JD Nash and the Rash of Cash

Reviva

Slums of Harvard

There will be two stein holding contests, a best-dressed Dirndl + Lederhosen competition, and a yodeling contest. Food will be available from Urban Hot Dog from 12-8, NewMex-A-Que from 4-11, and the Albuquerque German staple Dagmar's Specilties from 12-6.
