Oktoberfest Bar - Sign Up

Oktoberfest Bar

OKTOBERFEST 2026

October 16th, 17th, 18th | October 23rd, 24th, 25th

**** CHECK HERE FOR BAR NOTICES AND FEST STATUS ****

The schedule is now open to German Club members and non-members.
Many bars are being staffed by organizations, so there are limited spots open for regular volunteers.

How to Sign Up for Oktoberfest Bar Shifts

Click the drop down arrow next to “Bars” in the menu of this web page.
- Read the Bar Descriptions.
- Review the Bar Map.
Review the following general information:

We don’t allow volunteers to work more than one shift a day.
If you can work late, it is helpful if you sign up for an 8pm-12am shift. (The more 8pm-12am shifts you work, the higher your priority is to receive limited hats or t-shirts we get.)
If you are a single volunteer, please consider signing up for a spot that has an odd number of openings. (This keeps two-spot openings available for couples.).
If your desired day/time is filled, check back periodically for cancellations or send us an email to be put on a wait list (we don't do waitlists for specific bars, only for a desired day/time). Or if you would like to be a General Volunteer instead of a Bar Volunteer, please go to Oktoberfest General Volunteers.
The schedule and bar locations are subject to change and volunteer spots are not guaranteed. We will do the best we can to accommodate your preferences if we need to reschedule you.

Go to the SignUp.com Oktoberfest Bar Schedule (Review all of the numbered steps below, especially 3.2.3, before signing up.)

3.1 Select a day. (Look for an orange "Show more Spots>>" button at the end of the list of spots to make sure you are seeing all spots. Or see the tips section below for how to view only open spots.)

3.2 Click on SIGN UP for the spot you want to work.

3.2.1 Enter your contact information making sure to enter your First and Last Name. (We need full names for check-in and also because some prior volunteers have been blacklisted, LOL! Note: Your email address and phone number will not be visible publicly.)

3.2.3 Under “# of Spots” DO NOT CHANGE THE NUMBER FROM 1 even if you will be signing up a co-volunteer (see step 3.2.5 later).

3.2.4 If this is your first time signing up, uncheck “Count me in for updates and special offers from SignUp!” or else you will get email ads.

3.2.5 If you will also be signing up a co-volunteer, then at the bottom of the screen click the button that says “Save and Add Another Person.” (If this button is not displayed, you likely did not follow step 3.2.3.)

Enter the First and Last Name and Cell Number of the co-volunteer.
Entering the Email Addresses is not mandatory, but doing so will enable them to sign in to the bar schedule, get reminder emails, and allow us to email them reporting instructions.
Failure to enter names for each co-volunteer will result in your spot, as well as your co-volunteer's spot, to be eventually auto-deleted and the spots reopened.

3.2.6 Click Save and Done

3.3 After a half hour, check your email (and SPAM) for a confirmation email (make sure you signed up for the right weekend). The email will have an “Add to calendar” link, please add your spots to your calendar.

It is important you get the confirmation email to verify the email address since we will use that address to later send you reporting instructions.

General Information and Tips

- - You never need a password. (Don't click on "Register." If you ever misclick and get asked for a password, go back and click the SignUp Oktoberfest Bar Schedule link again.)
  - The ads on SignUp are annoying and sometimes get stuck and can’t be closed. Try refreshing your screen or go back and click the SignUp Oktoberfest Bar Schedule link again.
  - How to view only spots that are available:
    - If using a phone, go to the menu symbol at the upper right of the SignUp screen and click "Swap on Desktop," then on the right side of the screen check the box for “Hide Full Spots.” (Note: If using a phone, you must have already signed into SignUp sometime in the past or you won't see the menu symbol. Also, hiding full spots on a phone is not ideal because the desktop view results in the need to do scrolling to see the right side of the screen.)
    - If using a computer, on the right side of the screen check the box for “Hide Full Spots.”
  - How to find and/or delete spots you have already signed up for:
    - If using a phone, at the top of the page sign in with your email and click on the menu symbol at the upper right of the screen and then click "My Spots."
    - If using a computer, at the top of the page sign in with your email and on the right side of the screen check the box for “Show My Spots.”
    - If you want to delete your spot, as well as a co-volunteer's spot (if you were the one who signed them up):
      - If using a phone, click on the Bar Name, then click on the trash can icon next to the name. (Click the menu symbol and then "My Spots" to get back to your other spots.)
      - If using a computer, click on the Bar Name, then click the "MY SPOTS" button, then click "Remove," and then on the left side of the screen click on the trash can icon next to the name. (Click the "X" at the upper right of the screen to get back to the signup page.)
  - If you made a mistake and signed up for multiple spots at a bar but did not enter the co-volunteers' names (see step 3.2.3):
  - Go to the SignUp page and at the top of the page sign in with your email.
  - Click on the bar spot you need to update.
  - Change the "# of Spots" to 1.
  - At the bottom of the screen click "Save and Add Another Person" and

enter the co-volunteer's First and Last Name, Cell Number, and Email Address (useful but not mandatory).

Please send us an email if you get stuck or have any suggestions on how to improve the above guidance.

Thanks for volunteering!
