pulaski days

General Pulaski Memorial Day started in 1929 when Congress made October 11 a day to honor Pulaski.

The weekend features Pulaski Days in Grand Rapids! There's also a Goose Festival, Fall & Harvest Celebrations, Dogs & Donuts, Donuts & Beer, Oktoberfest, & Concerts.

We have more harvest festivals along with cultural festivals and art festivals. There is plenty of food, drink, entertainment, and fun for all ages.

For the first time since its inception in 1973, Pulaski Days in Grand Rapids won't happen this year.

There are a couple of reasons to wear red this weekend...Pulaski Days and the Red Flannel Festival. It’s also the final Friday for the Food Trucks at Riverside Park. There’s theater, comedy, a chance to run on the runway at the airport, a Donut Fest, small trees and flowers, a Pumpkin Train, and an event for you and the dog.
