Bankstoberfest is back and bigger, bolder, and beer-ier than ever! Join Banks Wines and Spirits for the 5th annual celebration on Saturday, October 10, 2026, from 1:00 PM to 5:00 PM at the Millville Volunteer Fire Department (located right next to Banks Wines & Spirits).

This year, things are simple and inclusive—every single ticket is General Admission for $65. No VIP tiers, no exclusive tents—just one massive party where everyone gets the VIP treatment! Designated Driver tickets will be available for $5 and can enjoy the mocktails and any other Non-Alcohol products.

Everyone is highly encouraged to bring your own lawn chairs and blankets to set up on the grass and enjoy the festivities.

• The Ultimate Tasting Kit: A commemorative 5oz. BWS tasting mug complete with a festival lanyard.

• The BWS Swag Bag: A dedicated bag packed full of goodies from your favorite brands.

• A Food Voucher: Good for a meal at ANY of our fantastic food vendors on-site.

• Defend Your Title: Get ready for some fun and friendly competitive lawn games. If you won big last year, come ready to defend your title!
