Okay, so the "beer festival" title was perhaps a bit off-putting to
some. Let's try again.

Can you list any big ethnic festivals in your part of the country?
In Iowa and Wisconsin, of course, they are mostly German Fests -- but
I know of at least one Italian Fest ("Festa Italiana" in Milwaukee)
and a couple of Polish festivals.

Here's why I'm interested: When we fly somewhere I always try to link
several activities together. When I fly to Milwaukee on vacation, for
example, I try to plan it around SummerFest -- a week-long lakefront
celebration of live music, food, and fun.

That way there's more to do than just see the relatives... :-)

So, that being said -- can anyone list some?

Jay, Fly on down here to south texas, I've got 3 different home-brewed Ales
on-tap... we can drink in the garage and call it a beer-fest grin
