Wisconsin’s “Hub City” of Marshfield embraces autumn with Maple Fall Fest, happening Saturday, September 19th and Sunday, September 20h this year. 2026 marks 34 years of Maple Fall Fest, and there’s plenty to see, do, buy, eat, drink, and enjoy.
Maple Fall Fest has been known by many as “the” place to find some of the best original artwork and handmade craft items in the Midwest. Over 150 vendors showcase their wares with original artwork, handmade arts and crafts, Amish specialties, The Maple Village, great food vendors, and their beer garden. The festival will also bring back favorites Mad Dog and Merrill “Grillin’ Buddies,” and family-focused fun for all ages. The legendary Potato Pancake Breakfast is also served each day!
The Kid’s Zone ensures that the younger ones have plenty to do. There’s a petting zoo, inflatable rides and of course all of the treats from the food court.
You won’t end up hungry, with that special pancake breakfast and a huge assortment of food vendors ready to serve pizza, brats, cheese curds, egg rolls, fried pasta, hot dogs, hamburgers, gyros, cream puffs, ice cream, kettlecorn, mouse ears, tacos, and a whole lot more.
Marshfield’s “Hub City” status relates to its location close to the exact center of Wisconsin, and many railroads always converged here. Today, you can take U.S. 10, Highway 13, Highway 80, or Highway 97 to reach Marshfield – it truly is in the center of everything.
Featuring over 150 arts & crafts vendors, potato pancake breakfast, children’s area, Amish specialties, beer garden, and food court. Inflatable rides for the kids and fun for the whole family. More details on visitmarshfield.com.
