All year long, Frankenmuth festivals and events bring our quaint riverfront community alive. Many of the festivities are free or low-cost and offer something for everyone in the family. There are events that embrace the city's German heritage like the Frankenmuth Bavarian Festival or Oktoberfest, and events for the health and fitness buffs like races. There are even events like Summer Music Fest and Country Fest that bring together two Frankenmuth favorites; music and beer! We hardly need an excuse to throw a party or a festival in this town, but our event organizers have found many reasons to do just that. Let's take the winter, sounds like a good excuse to host a huge snow festival called Zehnder's Snowfest. And then the decade we all love to hate and hate to forget… the 80's! We have a festival for that too. Events for Dogs? Check. Events with hot air balloons? Check. Food Trucks? Check. Michiganders are passionate about classic cars and like any Frankenmuth festival, we do it up right with Auto Fest, kicking off the event with an amazing Big Block Party that shuts down Main Street! Add to all of those the many wonderful events like colonial encampments, dinner shows and shopping events and you will know why Frankenmuth truly is one of Michigan's most festive destinations all year round! Many of our festivals are run by local volunteer organizations and proceeds are donated to charitable causes, such as Frankenmuth Jaycees, Frankenmuth Rotary, Lions Club, and Frankenmuth Women's Club.
