Festival Voting is Now Open!
The Hometown Throwdown is a giveback competition driven by consumers and end users that highlights one of the unique events that every community has a connection to – their local festival. The competition continues our tradition of giving back to the communities we call home by awarding $150K to support local festivals.

- Windmill Days in Baldwin, WI
