Having Fun with Wines and Crafts at MaiFest

By Rick Amorey

Kentucky is a beautiful state that enjoys moderate temperatures. Kentuckians, for their part, love to party because of the mostly clear climate. And of course, they also get to participate in various festivals throughout the year.

If you’re interested to go to the king of Kentucky festivals, one of the best events would have to be the highland Renaissance Festival in Eminence. This event spans for six weekends filled with fun and enjoyment. I will also talk about the MaiFest in Mainstrasse Village in Covington, and will be talked about in greater detail below. This festival celebrates the new harvest of wines in German traditions.

The MaiFest has been chosen as one of the top ten festivals in Kentucky for the spring by the Kentucky Tourism Council last year. The welcoming of new spring wines is accompanied by a selection of arts and arts, and is the first major festival of the summer in the Tri-State. The festival prefers to try out various international delicacies in terms of food. Continuous entertainment may also be had and is readily available as traditional and contemporary performers show the guests what skills and talents they have.

Personally, I prefer to stay in the craft shows in these festivals. While walking around long distances could be appealing to some, I find more enjoyment in seeing various crafts and experiencing the message that they bear. If you’re a stray soul like me, you will find many unique objects at the craft show.

Maifest can be found over six blocks along the 6th street promenade. You’ll definitely feel that aura that will put you in mind of a German Park. Look about for the Goose Girl Fountain when you get there and walk around from there. Music is performed everyday at that fountain and many consider it to be the starting point of the adventure. Enjoy the MaiFest!
