Where & When

Airtoberfest 2020 happened Friday, October 16 - Sunday, October 18.  Attendees began arriving around 12:00 noon Friday and departing around noon Sunday. The Friday evening hamburger and hotdog dinner was enjoyed by all and got the event off to a great start!

About

Airtoberfest is a gathering of friends who like motorcycles, food, beer (German Oktoberfest-style beer along with any and all other styles!), live music, and Fall camping. Airtoberfest is typically organized around the Time Machines Vintage Motorcycle Show at The Volland Store in Alma, KS. Unfortunately the 2020 show was been canceled. In spite of this cancellation The Airheads of Kansas proceeded with our annual Fall campout.

All this fun took place at The Volland Store - 24098 Volland Rd, Alma, KS 66401

Register for a place to camp, access to The Volland Store kitchen, access to the restrooms and showers, and use of the Blacksmith building for a Swap Meet! Alma, KS is about 8.5 miles east of The Volland Store so picking up any last-minute essentials is quick and easy. Wamego, KS is 22 miles north on Kansas Highway 99, and Manhattan, KS is about 27 miles north on Kansas 177. So, if you forget anything you aren't at all far from anything.
