About This Event

Welcome to Forever Fest: Octoberfest Midterm Mayhem 2026.

This event is more than a festival. It is a movement built on community, creativity, opportunity, and purpose.

Last October, I started this event alongside my son, Lil Adam. After losing him, I made the decision to continue building what we started together. Every event is a way to honor his legacy by creating opportunities for artists, vendors, entrepreneurs, and the community to come together.

I truly appreciate everyone who has believed in the vision from the beginning. Every artist who has performed, every vendor who has supported, every volunteer, every attendee, and everyone who has shared the event has helped this grow into something special.

Octoberfest Midterm Mayhem is designed to be more than something you attend. It is something you can become a part of.

Expect a full day of live entertainment featuring independent musicians, bands, poets, comedians, dancers, special guest performers, local businesses, food vendors, artists, and community organizations. Previous events have featured live bands, fire dancers, hayrides, interactive art, and much more, and this year I’m working to make the experience even bigger.

• Free Face Painting for the kids 1-3pm

Since Octoberfest takes place during Halloween season, all performing artists are encouraged to wear costumes. There will be costume prizes, surprises, and plenty of opportunities to have fun while putting on an unforgettable show.

Whether you’re coming to perform, support a local business, network, bring your family, or simply enjoy a great day with the community, there will be something for everyone.

Thank you for believing in the vision. I look forward to celebrating another incredible year with all of you.

Unity in the Spotlight.
