South Street Fest returns on Saturday, Oct. 1 from 11 a.m. until 7 p.m. on South Street from Second to Eighth streets. The event includes an Oktoberfest celebration at Brauhaus Schmitz, a block party at Philly AIDS Thrift, outdoor skating on Fifth Street, and an art pop-up at the Philadelphia Magic Gardens. South Street restaurants will be out serving fan favorites.
