WAUPUN — Celebrate Waupun 2026 was held Friday, June 26 through Sunday, June 28.
On all three days was the A&P Carnival rides and games, Pier Pups dog water jump contest, various vendors, and live music—notably hosting Boogie and the Yo-yo’s on Friday night.
Friday opened up at 4PM and saw the annual fire department water barrel battle between Waupun and surrounding communities.
On Saturday was the cornhole/bags tournament, and Sculpture Tour Trolley Rides with Mayor of Waupun Rohn Bishop and Jaedon Buchholz from Waupun Pioneer News.
Sunday morning Christian worship services were held at the big tent, followed by the Kiddle Pedal Pull. A car show was held in the Rock River Intermediate School parking lot, sponsored by Homan Auto. Marsh Haven Nature Center also had a small exhibit with live creatures, including a tortoise, a snake, and an owl.
And of course, the fireworks show at 9:30PM Sunday night.
