Mark your calendars and meet us at the Willkommen Platz in DTK where you can discover your inner Bavarian with amazing artists such as The Golden Keys, Weiss Blau, Rick Guzik, Hofbrau Band and the one and only Polka King himself, Walter Ostanek.
If polka is not your thing, we have you covered with performances by Moonshine and the indie funk sounds of The Boo Radley Project. Also on hand are local legends Romeo Sex Fighter, the Stacey and Shane Guse Honky Tonk Cocktail Hour and, as already announced, the multi-horn, multi-drummer, brass funk beast, My Son The Hurricane who is headlining the Saturday night party. Additional special guest performers will be announced in the coming months.
