A new event in a newly created space is coming to downtown Davenport. This event is co-produced by the German American Heritage Center (GAHC) and Downtown Davenport Partnership (DDP).
The free event will feature a variety of traditional Octoberfest activities including music, food and beer. Performing at the event will be the Dirndolls, a 7-piece Alpine folk band from Chicago made up of people of marginalized genders.
“We’re excited to host a new event for the QC to enjoy. K-Square provides a perfect venue for an outdoor event in the heart of downtown Davenport,” said Jason Gilliliand, Event Director for DDP.
With the strong history of German culture in the QC, it seemed the perfect opportunity to create a new event in K-Square, named for Davenport’s sister city Kaiserslautern, Germany.
“The rich German traditions around food, drink and music are a wonderful way to celebrate culture and have fun in our community,” said Kelly Lao, Executive Director of the GAHC.
When: Friday, Oct. 14, 2022, 6 – 10 PM, Free Admission
Where: Kaiserslautern Square (K-Square), 119 E. 3rd St., Davenport, IA
