Everyone's Polish at Polish Fest! It's true: whether you're Polish by heritage or Polish at heart, Polish Fest is the place to be this weekend.
Polish Fest runs from Friday, June 13, through Sunday, June 15, at the Henry Maier Festival Park (Summerfest grounds).
Swing by for polka bands, traditional folk dancers, pierogi, kielbasa, vodka tastings, cooking demos, crafts, genealogy support, a children's area, Little Miss Polish Fest Pageant, Catholic Mass and the unmatchable spirit of Poland that's made this event a favorite for four decades.
The Mass will be held at the Summerfest Grounds on Sunday, beginning with a prelude at 10 a.m. and the Mass at 10:15 a.m. The grounds will open to the public at 9:30 a.m., with free admission after the Mass.
Established in 1982, Polish Fest is a non-profit cultural festival organized by the Polish Heritage Alliance, Inc. For more information about Polish Fest, including a complete lineup of entertainment, go here.
