Sixth First Annual Polkapocalypse! With Brave Combo & Friends!

Sunday, October 27, 2019

12:00 pm to 5:30 pm

The SIXTH First Annual POLKAPOCALYPSE! is once again upon us! Four awesome Polka bands will rock the boots off your lederhosen with a crazy mix of Tejano, Czech, German, Polish, Gypsy, and Norteno sounds!



Some FAQs:

Yes: Admission is FREE!

Yes: There will be a dance floor.

Yes: Bring the family and a picnic and chairs if you wish. It's totally family friendly.

If we need to change (which seems very unlikely) we will announce by Friday afternoon. There is a rain site so the show will go on!

Yes: There will be food, drinks and ices available, including Jim-Jim's Water-Ice and The Salty German. There are also many options within a couple of blocks of the museum if you don't find what you need here! Coolers are totally allowed, beer alas is not. Bring a shirt and get it printed on site!

Yes: Parking is available at the Hyde Park Christian Church about 1/8 of a mile east of us on 45th street. There's also the Fresh Plus parking lot at 43rd & Ave G. Please be kind to our residential neighbors. Better yet, BIKE OR BUS! There are SEVEN Capitol Metro bus lines that stop within a 1/4 mile of here! Opa!
