2026 Cheese Curd Festival - Block Party!

Join us for a (Cheese) Block Party dedicated to the cheese lover in all of us! You’ll take a delicious trip around the state as you sample unique Wisconsin cheeses, each with their own 'Claim to Fame'. The Spiciest Cheeses in our state… we’ve got ‘em! Wisconsin’s Moldy but Goodies… yep, you’ll taste those, too! Aged cheeses, smelly cheeses, Wisconsin’s perfect pairings, and unique cheese curd flavors… over 30 types of cheeses will be available for tasting!

Guest cheese experts will be on hand to answer your questions and share how our dairy state and all our cheeses, came to be so famous, not only in the Midwest but all around the world!

Ticket includes a beer, hard cider, wine, or a non-alcoholic beverage, and a complimentary prune juice chaser–after eating all that cheese, you might need it! Tickets are $25 each.

ID's will be checked onsite. Check-in begins 10 minutes prior to event time at the Taste of Wisconsin Tasting Tent.

Early bird pricing: $25 per ticket online through June 15. After June 15, tickets are $30 each. Tickets are non-refundable.
