Overview
April 25, 2026
Dust off your lederhosen and mark your calendars! The Roselle Sister Cities Association German Committee is thrilled to invite you to the milestone 5th Annual Bockfest on Saturday, April 25, 2026, at Pollyanna Brewing Company in Roselle, Illinois.
The festivities kick off at 12:00 PM with the high-energy Bockfest Parade, starting at Kemmerling Park and marching to Pollyanna Brewing Company. Once the parade arrives, the party really starts! We’ll have a day packed with authentic German heritage, including:
· For the Adults: Pollyanna’s signature Bock beer, live German music, and the legendary Stein Holding competition.
· For the Kids: A dedicated Kids’ Craft Corner, goat drawings, and a goat petting area.
· The Main Event: Ceremonial keg blessing and tapping, plus plenty of delicious food to devour!
The celebration continues at Pollyanna until 11:00 PM.
Like last year, we will also host a Dachshund Race the day before on Friday, April 24. More details to come, but email us at RSCAGerman@gmail.com if you would like more information!
