THERE'S A FESTIVAL THAT
EVERYONE CAN ENJOY!
1-800-FUN-TOWN isn't just our phone
number. With a number like that, it's no
surprise that Frankenmuth is home to
more than 15 major festivals and events
each year. Many of the festivals held
here are low-cost or even free, making a
weekend in Frankenmuth an affordable
getaway for the whole family.
Whether you're looking to immerse
yourself in our German traditions
at festivals like Bavarian Festival or
Frankenmuth Oktoberfest, or surround
yourself with over 2,500 classic cars
at Frankenmuth Auto Fest, there's an
event that everyone can enjoy. Foodies
and beer lovers can rejoice at either
World Expo of Beer, Michigan's largest
international beer sampling event, or
the Funtown Chowdown Food Truck
Festival, with over 20 food trucks at
each of their five events throughout
the Summer.
And let's not forget the music! Dust off
your boots for Big Country Fest, tease your
hair for Bringin' Back the 80's Fest, or try
out your best yodel at Summer Music Fest.
Everyone loves a good fireworks show! Our
larger festivals like Zehnder's Snowfest, a
week long snow and ice sculpting event,
or Dog Bowl and Balloons Over Bavarian
Inn, a festival dedicated to pups and hot
air balloons, usually hold spectacular
fireworks shows to close out the event.
Colonial encampments, dinner shows,
shopping events, races, and more make
the list of top festivals in Frankenmuth.
Find yourself at one of these on your next
trip to Michigan's Little Bavaria!
