It looks to be a fairly small event, but we enjoyed the afternoon. I'll likely try it again next year.
Annual celebration of German culture in West Bend
West Bend GERMANfest is an annual festival in West Bend. Our event features food options and entertainment, including the Alex Meixner Band and other musical acts. We are located at Regner Park. Our team organizes the festival to benefit families in need, with proceeds going toward building a new home. We have been a community tradition for 40 years. We offer shuttle rides and plenty of parking for attendees. We are closed Monday through Wednesday, and open Thursday through Sunday.

Lots of food options. Lots of good food trucks. Alex Meixner Band. Lots good entertainment. Excellent location. Plenty of parking. Shuttle rides to your car. But the chairs were kinda hard to sit on and difficult to get up.
2020 -- Free admission, good music (a little for everyone), and of course the food. ’23 -- Been attending pretty regularly since '07 when the tents were mainly for the bands & volunteering most of the last 5.
Nice time for fundraiser with volunteers. Very small selection of beers, but they were delicious.
The parking is difficult, but, the music is well worth it. Molly B is multi-talented with many instruments. I also enjoyed Box On The Polka Family. It was so good to see the family, that enjoys working together with each other. And some of the younger talented entertainers taking a leadership role. Kudos ! You should focus on expanding your audience participation, to give them an opportunity to be a part of your Wonderful Band Family. Great Job !
