More Cheese - More Fun!

Family fun for the whole weekend. Enjoy the festival atmosphere throughout Arthur. Eat a corn dog, sample the Free Cheese, take in a tractor pull, watch a parade, listen to some music, visit an Amish farm shop, shop the sales in town... just enjoy yourself.  That's what a visit to Amish Country is about!

Win a national title at the National Cheese Eating Championships or a World title in the International Cheese Curling Championships. Family and kids divisions in each event. Come join us and have fun!
