19th Annual Galena Oktober Fest
October 3
11:00 a.m.-10:00 p.m.

Celebrate German heritage during this activity-filled festival. From famous Wiener Dog Races to Samuel Adams Stein Hoisting Competition to New Glarus Alphorns softly playing to throwing on your lederhosen and dancing to some polka music. Bring the whole family, and head over to the Kinder Area where children can try their luck with The Great Pumpkin Lift and win free Potosi Root Beer. Grab some apple cider donuts and paint some pumpkins or play Big Jenga or Big Connect4 in the shade for a while.

This year, celebrity singer Wayne Messmer will sing the national anthem, the Oscar Mayer Wienermobile will visit, and a hot air balloon glow by Galena On The Fly will take place!

Hosted by the Galena Lions Club, all proceeds from this event will benefit the community, serving those in need. Adults and teens are $10 while kids 12 and under are free!

Pre-registration is required for Wiener Dog Races and the Samuel Adams Stein Hoisting Competition.
