Stiftungsfest Schedule

Join Stiftungsfest for a weekend of events, entertainment, and music for all ages. We wouldn’t make it to 164 years without participation in these events and the over 300 volunteers who lend a hand.

Admission to the celebration is sold at the gate on the day of the event. Enjoy all the music and events without any additional fees. All proceeds benefit the NYA Fire Department. It’s that simple!

General Admission

Cash is accepted at all gates. ATMs are on site.
