Nebraska City’s historic AppleJack Festival annually draws between 60,000 and 80,000 people to Nebraska City to celebrate the apple harvest.

 

We are spreading the celebration out over two weekends during the harvest season, not just on one three-day stretch.

We invite you to come anytime this autumn for our 57th AppleJack Festival! It kicks off Friday, September 19, and lasts until the final apple is eaten. AppleJack Festival has been named one of the Best Fall Harvest Festivals in America by USA Today and a top Fall Destination by HGTV!

​

Weekend 1 Theme: Traditional AppleJack

Weekend 2 Theme: All About Apples​​​

​

Check out all our fabulous Nebraska City Museums! Make a weekend out of it and book an overnight stay! Hungry, we have places to stop? Need to do some shopping, we have something for everyone?​
