Fantasy Faire Wizard Costume Contest
Dress up as your favorite wizard for this all-ages costume contest. Refreshments will be served and awards presented. Participating wizards must arrive by 5:45p.m. in order to register for the contest.

Mayor Mike Palazzolo and area dignitaries will be on hand to officially launch The Big Read in Germantown. Open to all, this family-friendly event celebrates fantasy fiction with strolling musicians, juggler, balloonist, fire performer, face painting, wizarding science experiments, mule-drawn wagon rides, food trucks and more. Don’t miss an opportunity to take a selfie with Germantown’s own traveling wizard or town crier. Some lucky Faire goers will receive a free book. Copies will also be available for check out.
