Events

There is always something “brewing,” so to speak, in Fredericksburg. With over 50 annual events and festivals you are bound to visit during one of them. For over 100 years the town holds the Gillespie County Fair in August which celebrated the music, food and traditions of the German pioneers. Fourth of July is always a big deal in Fredericksburg with fireworks displays, parades, picnics and chili cook-offs. In June there is the Cherry Springs Festival which is a four-day series of art exhibits, concerts, food and wine. And finally, Fredericksburg pulls out all the stops for their annual Oktoberfest in October. The Marktplatz (market place) in the center of town transforms into a German town celebrating with German food, music and of course lots of beer.

So throw on your lederhosen, leave your passport behind and head to Fredericksburg for a little trip to Europe right here at home.
