Leavenworth is hosting their annual
Maifest celebration May 8th-10th, 2026!
There are a ton of Berners and their families that come regionally, and there is even a parade and the Berners get to participate! We literally saw dozens and dozens of Berners!!!! It was so great!
There is a lot of fun, music, great food and shopping!
The parade starts at 12pm on Saturday. ***NOTE: The humans MUST dress in Bavarian outfits in order to walk their Berners in the parade! ***
So…..start shopping now on Amazon or you can always buy outfits when you get there!!
The Berner Club of the Greater Seattle area organizes the Berners so we can all walk together at the end of the parade. It was really fun!!
That club also hosts a big BBQ after the parade on Saturday and everyone is welcome! We stopped by last year and it was really cool!

**Note: I am not a member of any Berner club, or associated with the Maifest event in any way. I just wanted to share the event information because we have really enjoyed it in years past, and we know people need to make travel arrangements in advance.**
