Kool-Aid Days is held the second full weekend of August each year in Hastings, Neb., and it features an assortment of fun events and games like a Kool-Aid drinking contest, rides, and the world’s largest Kool-Aid stand. Kool-Aid Days – Since Kool-Aid was invented in Nebraska, it makes sense that we’d celebrate it each year. There’s an unusual egg judging contest, the world’s largest chicken dance, and the Wayne Chicken Show National Cluck-Off…to name just a few things planned. The theme is always chickens, and from that, all things are planned (with a lot of humor). Wayne Chicken Show – The Wayne Chicken Show is held on the second weekend of July in Wayne, Neb. That’s right, real ducks race across ice. Being January in Nebraska, the race is on ice. Quirky Nebraska festivals and annual eventsĪvoca Duck Races – On the last Saturday in January, the town of Avoca holds the annual Avoca Duck Races as a fundraiser for the volunteer fire department. Held each June in North Platte, the weekend is packed with the usual fair events like a parade, as well as big name music acts and the Buffalo Bill Rodeo. NEBRASKAland Days – NEBRASKAland Days is part music festival, part rodeo. Some of geared toward kids, like Lil’ Scientist Day, some are for adults (usually involving chemistry and booze), but overall, most events are for the entire family. NE SciFest – For most of April each year, locations around Nebraska hold special events as part of Nebraska Science Festival. Some of the biggest names currently touring play on the MAHA stages each August. MAHA Music Festival – MAHA Music Festival is Omaha’s largest multi-day music festival. The AppleJack Festival also a craft fair, parade, carnival.
