It is probably our town's most well-known event as people come from all over the world to "Go Dutch." There are vendors with items for sale that are authentic to the period. Exhibits and shows are put on all week long to give visitors a little taste of the past. Food vendors serve homemade funnel cakes, lemon drinkas, and bratwurst and the whole thing ends with one of the biggest quilt auctions known to man. It runs every year during the July 4th holiday week and brings hordes of visitors to our small PA town. kutztownfestival.com 3 Train Rides Trains are not just for children and especially not the ones in Kutztown. The Allentown & Auburn Railroad team has a jampacked schedule of events that run all summer long from Kutztown to Topton and back. You can enjoy wine and cupcake pairing rides, ice cream rides, Father's Day picnic rides, and more. They have events for children, events for adults, and you can even rent your own train for a very reasonable price to hold a private event. allentownandauburnrr. com 2 Kutztown Day This event has been going on as long as we can remember and is one of the best family-friendly events we have all year round. Kutztown Day is held annually on the first Sunday in August and the all-volunteer committee does a great job of planning a fun-filled day of events for kids and families while showcasing some of the hidden talents in this town. Recently, they added a 6-hole disc golf course sure to entertain dolfers of all experience levels. This event only gets better every year and never disappoints when the sun goes down and the fireworks display shoots off into the sky as the finale to the day-long event. kutztownboro.org/event/kutztown-day 1 Dinner on Main This Kutztown Community Partnership-hosted event is a local favorite and boasts multiple local food vendors set up along the 200 block of Main Street on the first Friday in August. The street is closed as attendees browse the many food offerings of each participant while musical entertainment accompanies throughout the night. The whole town comes out for this one and the food vendors NEVER disappoint. This year's event is August 3rd. kutztownpartnership.org/dinneronmain/ We're looking forward to seeing you in Kutztown! 43http://www.GreaterReadingChamber.org http://www.kutztownfestival.com http://www.kutztownboro.org/event/kutztown-day http://www.kutztownpartnership.org/dinneronmain/
