Schulenburg Heritage Festival

Prepare for the self-proclaimed ‘National Party of Texas’ at the Schulenburg Festival, where authentic small-town charm meets larger-than-life entertainment. Held annually at the picturesque Wolters Park, this four-day blowout features continuous live music spanning red dirt country, Americana, and traditional polka, ensuring there is a tune for every boot to scoot to. Thrill-seekers can catch two action-packed nights of CPRA/UPRA rodeo events, complete with bull riding and mutton bustin’, while foodies can feast their way through intense CASI and IBCA-sanctioned chili and BBQ cook-offs. From the grand Sunday parade winding through downtown and fierce tricycle races to a bustling carnival and the iconic cow chip throwing contest, this family-friendly extravaganza offers an unforgettable mix of heritage, competition, and pure Lone Star State fun.
