Final Weekend of the Old West Festival

Another season has come, and almost gone. There have been some great times at the Old West Fest this year. We’ve shared the festival with 1800s style baseball, steampunks, and even introduced some new beers.

But all good things must come to an end, and we are at the final weekend October 17-18. This weekend is Halloween weekend, and kids under 12 in a costume get in for just $1.

Of course all the great vendors, cast, music, and shows will be playing all weekend.

There’s more information at the Facebook event page

See you all in Dodge City!
