OKTOBERFEST
Each year, we eagerly invite you to join us for our highly anticipated Oktoberfest celebration. This festive event takes place on the second Saturday in October, weather permitting, at St. Matthew’s. Prepare for an extraordinary experience filled with live music, authentic German cuisine, a lively biergarten featuring local craft beers, a German bakery, and a spirited Kinderzone. Enjoy the melodies of German Chorales and Hymns, and look forward to visits from Charleston’s mayor, local leaders, and even an appearance by the legendary German reformer, Martin Luther! Our celebration is set in the beautiful St. Matthew’s Courtyard on King Street at Marion Square. We can’t wait to see you there.
Save the Date! October 10, 2026, see you there!

Oyster Roast
For over 50 years, St. Matthew’s has celebrated the cherished local tradition of gathering with friends and family for an oyster roast. This beloved event is a highlight of the year, and tickets are highly sought after, as our community eagerly anticipates the chance to come together and enjoy this time-honored festivity. This year’s 55th annual oyster roast was held on Friday, March 6th, 2026 at the Hobcaw Yacht Club. See you next year!
