Mann in der Mitte: Max Schmeling | Online Presentation (Thursday, April 09, 2026)

Fri, 10 Apr 2026 00:00:00 GMT

MANN IN DER MITTE: MAX SCHMELING

Presented by Mike Haas

Max Schmeling, the German boxing great of the 1920s and 30s, was an athlete caught between two worlds: the American boxing scene, which he needed to advance his career, and a Germany that became Nazi in the prime of his life. His fame—if not notoriety—came from his two legendary fights against Joe Louis, perhaps the greatest heavyweight boxer of all time, in 1936 and 1938. In those bouts, the American press often portrayed him as Adolf Hitler’s “Superman.” Yet despite circumstances far beyond his control on both sides of the Atlantic, Schmeling remained very much his own man—not only then, but throughout his long and remarkable life.

Can't make it to the online presentation? Join us instead for the in-person presentation at the DANK Haus from 7:00 PM - 8:30 PM on March 12.

DANK Haus Oktoberfest 2026 (Saturday, September 19, 2026)

Sat, 19 Sep 2026 23:30:00 GMT

Chicago's Most Authentic Oktoberfest - at the DANK Haus!

❤️ Why It Matters ❤️

When you raise a stein at our DANK Haus Oktoberfest, you are doing more than celebrating-- you are giving back. Every brat, every stein, and every ticket helps fund our non-profit mission to preserve German culture, language, and traditions while supporting programs and events that enrich the Chicago community.

For years, the DANK Haus German American Cultural Center has been home to Chicago's most authentic Oktoberfest! Join us in our historic Marunde Ballroom on Saturday, September 19th from 6:30 PM to 11:30 PM for a night filled with tradition, community, and gemütlichkeit.

Brats, Leberkäse & Bavarian Bites
From hearty Leberkäse dinners with sauerkraut & potato salad to juicy bratwursts, smoky Thüringer, and Halbes Hendl (1/2 chicken) — plus sweet treats like delicious Apfelstrudel and Bienenstich. Every bite is the real deal, made to keep you fueled for the fest!

Steins, Sips & German Spirits
Raise your glass with authentic imports: Hofbräu Oktoberfest, Würzburger Hofbräu, Julius Echter Weissbier, Stiegl Radler, and Bitburger NA options. Not into beer? Enjoy a selection of German red and white wine, Aval Blanc cider, or a round of schnapps to keep the night spirited!

Musik & Entertainment

To Be Announced

Festive Fun & Friendly Competition

Celebrate Oktoberfest with high-energy Bavarian games like our famous Yodeling Contest and Stein-Holding Challenge! Dance to lively German tunes, cheer on friends, and join in the excitement of the ceremonial keg tapping!

Doors open at 6:30 PM.

Online RSVP is not required, but greatly appreciated. This helps us get an idea of how many people will be attending and helps us to plan accordingly. Walk-ins are always accepted!

Free parking at 5/3 Bank after 6:00 PM located at Western and Gunnison
