2009 Tomball German Heritage Festival

It’s become an annual tradition in Tomball. Every year, on the last weekend in March, festival-goers break out their Lederhosen and Dirndls “go German” for the area’s largest festival celebrating the heritage of the original settlers of these lands. In other words in the case of German heritage there is much to celebrate in this part of Texas!

The 9th Annual Tomball German Heritage Festival will be March 27,28,29, 2009 located on the Old Downtown Streets of Tomball Texas near the 200 Block of Main (FM 2920) and Market Street.

Like Oktoberfest in March! Huge fun for the whole family! You do not have to be German to enjoy this festival. It is fun for everyone, and one of the best street festivals in Texas. Willkommen!
