We are a non-profit organization dedicated towards sustaining a vital and healthy business and retail community by showcasing Cedarburg's attributes, encouraging tourism, and fostering civic, cultural and educational interests. Begun in 1973, Winter Festival and Wine & Harvest Festival have been successful in bringing thousands of visitors and residents alike to celebrate the charm and beauty of t
his beautiful downtown, named to the National Historic District in 1986. In 1985, Strawberry Festival was begun, while in 2005, the first Cedarburg Cycling Classic was undertaken and in July, 2008 the first annual Oktoberfest (formally German Festival) joined the list. Community volunteers, Cedarburg’s retail merchants and non-profit groups work together to create the festivals. In 2001, festivals had grown so large that for charitable purposes, a 501(c)(3) organization was founded; Festivals of Cedarburg, Inc., with a board made up of ten volunteer members. The Festival Executive Director manages the day-to-day operations and along with two Festival Coordinators, organize the festivals while the Festival board and community and retail members continue to participate in partnership roles. Festival meetings are held monthly at Cedarburg City Hall and are open to everyone. The purpose of Festivals of Cedarburg, Inc. is to continue to work toward sustaining a vital and healthy business and retail community by showcasing the city’s attributes, encouraging tourism and fostering civic, cultural and educational interests. Non-profit groups in Cedarburg also benefit financially by their participation, enabling them to fund their own operations and charitable contributions. www.twitter.com/cedarburgfest
