Gandy Dancer Days in Webster, Wisconsin is a lively, community-driven festival running from August 8 to 10 at the Central Burnett County Fairgrounds. Honoring the town’s railroad heritage, the event offers a mix of family-friendly fun, local traditions, and community fundraising. Visitors can enjoy a variety of activities including a Saturday morning 5K Run/Walk that supports Webster’s cross country team, a bustling arts and crafts show featuring regional vendors, and children’s attractions such as pony rides, games, a sawdust treasure hunt, and a bicycle safety rodeo. Live music and a beer garden provide entertainment well into the evening on both Friday and Saturday, while food stands serve up summer staples like hot dogs, brats, pies, and root beer floats—all benefiting local nonprofit groups. For something a little different, festivalgoers can take part in playful competitions like pickleball and the always-popular skillet toss. Admission is free, making it a welcoming celebration for both residents and visitors alike!
