Start your day with breakfast hosted by A & W on behalf of the Nisswa Fire Department. You can participate in the medallion hunt and compete in the bean bag tournament. Head to Pioneer Village for KIDZONE, Fall Artisan & Crafters Market, music and more activities and memory making. 

The tantalizing smell of barbecued ribs wafts through town as teams compete in the Smokin' Hot BBQ Challenge. After ribs are judged, the public gets its chance to taste the creations. Live music throughout the day continues into the night with a live outdoor concert.
