Annual Events

We believe in celebrating the great successes of our citizens and businesses with our annual Chamber Awards Banquet.

We start the summer season with Summerfest held the second week of June.

We also celebrate our unique history each fall with our annual Oktober Heritage Festival.

And, lastly, we invest in the leadership development of our citizens with our annual Leadership Lewis Program which begins every January.

"Celebration brings Appreciation!"

Oktoberfest

Lewis County attracts thousands of visitors each year to the downtown Oktoberfest Heritage Festival the second weekend in October.

Previously known as Oktoberfest in Hohenwald, the Oktober Heritage Festival encompasses more of the cultural background of the Swiss settlement in the late 1800's, the influence of the Appalachia settlers and the Chickasaw Native Americans. Today it means all the people who are a part of our community.

Each year on the second weekend of October, the Oktober Heritage Festival is held, with a ton of vendors, food concessions, and the famous 10 Mile Long yard sales along Hwy 20.

Summerfest

We start the summer season with a celebration of music, food, arts & crafts and just good ole fun! With great music (you'll be dancing in the street) or with inflatable water slides for the kids- there's something for everyone!

Join us the second weekend in June for some good old fashioned fun!

Chamber Annual Awards Banquet

Each year the Hohenwald/Lewis County Chamber of Commerce delights in celebrating the accomplishments of the businesses and individuals that boost the success of Hohenwald and Lewis County!
