About the event
For many in our community, the Ellsworth Polkafest was more than just an event — it was a celebration of music, food, and the friendships that make small towns special. This October, The Thirsty Badger is bringing that spirit back with our own Oktoberfest celebration honoring the tradition of Polkafest.
Join us Saturday, October 3rd starting at 10AM for a full day of great music, German food, cold Oktoberfest beer, and the kind of fun that made Polkafest a local favorite for so many years.
