The issue is that these craft breweries are small, they don't have much money to burn, and therefore can't sponsor Oktoberfest. It would be nice if they all could be part of it, but money is the issue. Oktoberfest can't pay for itself.
I can't think of any way for Oktoberfest to changer, without taking risk. Perhaps they need to realize that the older generation of party goers are mostly in bed during the festivities and that the traditional party perhaps needs to change. I think they'd need to spend good coin on better entertainment in their fest halls.
But really, better minds should be at this to figure a solution for this brand that seems to be dying.
