Falls Lavender Fest 2026 Returns to Menomonee Falls

The Falls Lavender Fest is back for its 6th annual celebration, bringing a full day of lavender-inspired shopping, food, music and family fun to Village Park in Menomonee Falls.

This free, rain-or-shine summer festival celebrates the scent, color, flavor and creativity of everything lavender. Families can browse vendor booths, enjoy live music, stop by the beer garden, explore kid-friendly activities and make a day of it in downtown Menomonee Falls.

Falls Lavender Week: July 14–18

The fun begins before festival day. From Tuesday, July 14 through Saturday, July 18, Menomonee Falls Downtown businesses will celebrate Falls Lavender Week with lavender-themed products, treats, drinks and experiences.

It’s a great excuse to shop, sip and stroll through the downtown district before the big Saturday festival. Local shops, boutiques, cafes and restaurants are expected to feature lavender-inspired merchandise, flavors and seasonal surprises throughout the week.

Festival Day: Saturday, July 18

On Saturday, July 18, Village Park transforms into a lavender lover’s dream. The festival runs from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. and includes lavender farms, marketplace vendors, food trucks, live music, a beer garden and family activities.

The 2026 marketplace vendor list already includes a wide variety of makers, farms, artists, bakers, food vendors and small businesses, with everything from lavender products and jewelry to baked goods, clothing, home décor, pet treats and more. The festival’s official vendor list notes more than 140 booths to explore.
