Buy a Button!
The easiest way to support Ox Cart Days is to buy a button, which acts as your pass to almost all the events throughout the week. The amount of free fun available all week long can't be beat. Wear your button and off you go! Enjoy the week and we will see you EVERYWHERE! (Ages 5 and under FREE)
We have a few fundraising events for local clubs, teams and charities; those events will have an extra charge and of course, you buy the treats and drinks! All events with an additional cost are labeled on the schedule.
Sign up to volunteer!
Our volunteers make the festival possible!

Thank You to our Generous Sponsors!
Our sponsors are the reason we can offer a week's worth of events for such a low price. Without their dedication and generosity, we could not imagine putting on a festival of this size. The reason your button only costs $5 for a whole week is because these sponsors love this event as much as we do, and because of them, we can continue putting on "The Biggest Small Town Festival in Minnesota" year after year
