Special Events

The City of Oshkosh recognizes the importance of special events in our community to enhance the city’s quality of life and takes pride in being “Wisconsin’s Event City”. Host to over thousands of special events each year, the City of Oshkosh diligently communicates with event organizers to ensure that special events have an overall positive effect on our community and resources. With numerous parks and venues we are able to create the perfect place for your celebration!

While we provide a great location for your event, we do request that all organizers adhere to our Special Events Ordinance in conjunction with the City of Oshkosh Municipal Code. We are here to help and support you. Please contact the Special Events Coordinator with any questions or concerns you may have. We look forward to assisting you with your upcoming event.
