The Nulu Bock and Wurst Fest returns on Saturday, Mar. 23 for the 7th year. The bock fest tradition began in the mid-19th century to mark the change of seasons when the beer, a dark German lager known as bock, was released after aging in the winter. Because of Nulu’s proximity to Nanny Goat Alley and Billy Goat Strut, it is the most fitting place for Bock Fest which includes Goat Racing, a wurst-eating competition, music performances, vendors, and food trucks.
The event takes place from noon until 6 p.m.
Before the big event, several pre-fest activities are scheduled.
