Oktoberfest

Raise a glass and join us for the National Press Club’s festive annual celebration of Oktoberfest in the Reliable Source on Oct. 16. 

A variety of long-favorite German specialties will highlight the buffet, paired perfectly with a special Oktoberfest beer on tap for the evening.

Adding to the fun, accordionist Russell Wilson returns by popular demand. A member of “The President’s Own” U.S. Marine Band, Master Sgt. Wilson has performed at the White House and the Commandant’s residence for State Dinners, receptions and more.
