Croatian Fest

Croatian Fest is Milwaukee's local ethnic festival, a vibrant celebration of heritage that has been a cornerstone of Milwaukee's cultural landscape for over 90 years. We bring the spirit of Croatia to life through world-class music, traditional dance, and the authentic flavors of our homeland.

Gathering for All: This is a celebration for families, friends, and the entire Milwaukee community—a welcoming space where everyone can share in our traditions and hospitality.

Why It Matters: For Milwaukee Croatians, the fest is a vital bridge to our roots; for the wider community, it’s a beautiful cultural exchange that strengthens the diverse fabric of our city.

Food is available for sale as well as home made bakery and desserts. We feature a full bar with many Croatian beers and cordials as well as all of your local favorites. Many vendors are on site selling wonderful items and we have games for the little ones.

Traditional Croatian rotisserie is available however as with every year it sells out quick. It is highly recommend that your pre-order rotisserie lamb, pork and chicken that is sold by the pound at our festival.

Pre-Order by contacting American European Foods (414) 444-2121

Vendor Requests are welcome to continue to share our ethnic traditions
