Pepper Fest is a three-day celebration that honors the North Hudson, Wisconsin community's Italian heritage with homemade Italian food, a beer garden, live entertainment, contests, a parade, a queen coronation and more.

Pepper Fest is all about giving back to the community while also creating a memorable and fun three-day event. Proceeds from the volunteer-run, non-profit festival are donated to local youth, school, community and service organizations each year. On average, over $20,000 is given back to the community each year.
