It’s time for the Original South O festival! Sts. Peter and Paul will continue its 107-year tradition of celebrating summer by hosting its annual ethnic festival, “The Greatest Festival in Town.” During its first century, this event grew to be one of the largest of the local church festivals, and the tradition continues into its second century. This fantastic summer festival features a MegaBucks $5,000 grand prize drawing, a melting pot of South Omaha’s favorite ethnic foods, beer, rides, prizes, and live music.
Sts. Peter and Paul Parish will launch the oldest, largest and longest-running annual church
festival on Sunday, August 4, from noon – 8:00 p.m. on the parish grounds at
36th & “X” Street, Omaha, NE.
A single drawing for $5,000, a second prize of $500, and additional $100 prizes headline Omaha’s greatest summer church festival with continuous live music, providing an entire day of live entertainment. Other drawings include handmade quilts and afghans, meat raffles, “pickles”, along with numerous rides, games and events for children and the entire family.
Everyone is invited to bring hearty appetites to savor delicious ethnic foods, including Sts. Peter
and Paul’s famous “sarma” (cabbage rolls), homemade Italian sausage and peppers, Polish sausage, bratwurst, BBQ lamb on a spit, tacos, and desserts from every corner of the world!
