German Auto Show
Sunday October 5th
Brought together by their love of cars...talking about cars...driving cars...and racing cars; in 1974 a group of car enthusiasts formed the Rocky Mountain Chapter of the BMW club. Over the years, the club has grown to offer high-performance driving schools, autocross, and driving tours.
Join us for our biggest event yet as we celebrate 50 years with an epic Oktoberfest. We’re shutting down an entire street in Denver’s Berkley neighborhood with Call to Arms Brewery for our German Auto Show, photography contest, car club sponsors booths, prizes and of course, a proper beer hall.
Festivities are open to the public so bring a friend or two as we Prost the club, and all of the members and volunteers who help continue the motorsport enthusiasm. Note: There is no registration required to attend this event, this registration page is reserved for attendees who would like to participate in the German Auto Show

Pottery with A Purpose
Wednesday October 15th
Unplug, unwind, and make something by hand at our feel-good pottery workshop — no experience needed. Whether you come for the joy of making, the community, or a mindful tech-free moment, this guided clay workshop is all about having fun while you sip and socialize. You’ll learn pottery basics and leave with a one-of-a-kind piece (or two) you built by hand, plus the option to have your work professionally fired and glazed so it’s functional, food-safe, and waterproof.
Perfect for a clay date, catching up with friends, or coming solo to meet new people. Just pick the date and theme that fits your vibe in the drop-down menu.
Bonus: We donate $1 from every ticket to mental health initiatives. Learn more here about which non-profits we’ve given back to so far, and how you can help choose who we support next.
