About Vendor 

Learn more about this vendor for your event.

Polkawagen is a high-energy, husband-wife duo delivering Bavarian/German, Bohemian/Czech, Polish, Slovenian, and USA folk music, along with some popular novelty tunes, all transported in a hybrid vehicle of Slovenian/Cleveland and Dutchmen (Oom-pah) style polkas, waltzes, plus a lot more — all seasons, year-round. Polkawagen will transport the right polka music package to your next event — customized to your specific entertainment needs, attendees, venue size, and volume requirements. Performing in authentic Bavarian trachten attire (i.e., lederhosen and dirndl) or their branded automotive-style band shirts, Polkawagen is prepared to entertain anywhere, indoors or outdoors, from a small intimate party celebration to huge Maifest and Oktoberfest events throughout Alabama, Arkansas, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Mississippi, Missouri, North Carolina, South Carolina, Virginia, and Tennessee. With top professional sound and performance standards, family-friendly entertainment, and its characteristic mixture of polka party music, everyone will have a grand time with Polkawagen! ============================================ Read what others are saying about Polkawagen: "Polkawagen, thank you so much for being the feature German band for our Cullman Oktoberfest 2020 & 2021 festivals. You guys are awesome!" — Cullman Oktoberfest (Cullman, Alabama) "Sister Cities of Nashville reached out to Polkawagen to be part of a virtual event in 2020 featuring the culture, food, and fare of Germany. We asked them to perform a few songs for additional entertainment over Zoom and they really rose to the challenge! Not only were they very easy to work with as we designed the program, but their contribution and performance went above and beyond in its warmth and uniqueness. Their performance both visually with traditional Bavarian attire, and educationally, through their knowledge of polka, genuinely added to the ambiance and helped us offer a truly culturally immersive experience. By the end of our event, people were literally dancing in front of their computer screens. The joy and connection participants shared through their music helped to make our event extra special — we can only imagine how fun they would be in person! Sister Cities of Nashville definitely hopes to work with them again in the future!" — S. Lingo, Executive Director of Sister Cities of Nashville "Polkawagen, thank you for performing at our Oktoberfest-themed Appreciation Day 2020 for all of our clients, friends, and neighbors. With the previously booked band canceling on us one week out, you came through and saved the day! You all sounded great, and we will certainly be asking you back to perform again next year." — Mengelberg Family (Lebanon, TN) "I just wanted to thank you for playing at my Grandmother's 90th Birthdayfest. Even with just a few day's notice, you all were able to put on a excellent show. I have had many compliments, and I would certainly refer your music group to anyone. I appreciated your communication and dependability. You all saved the day!" — T. Brown (Adams, TN) "So happy we booked Polkawagen for our family reunion and Maifest celebration. They got the entire family on their feet with all their fantastic music choices. Highly recommend!" — Gant Family (Clarksville, TN) "Polkawagen was the hit of our neighborhood event! Besides being fun and easy to work with, Bart and Liesa went above and beyond to make our community Oktoberfest a huge success! From their authentic Bavarian outfits to their vast array of instruments, Polkawagen was the perfect way to put a little hop into everyone’s step. Young and old alike loved not just a single performance, but what we hope is the beginning of an annual tradition!" — Chestnut Bend HOA (Franklin, TN) "You were the perfect band for my 2019 and 2021 Oktoberfest party! Thank you for playing all of the German songs I requested, especially the tunes not already in your repertoire. You sounded fantastic!" — S. Benson (Old Hickory, TN)

Corporate FunctionReviewed on March 14, 2023From Nashville, TN

Polkawagon was exactly what our team was looking for for our Oktoberfest event! They were flexible, fun, professional, and kind. They went above and beyond and we would gladly recommend them to anyone that was looking for an oom-pah band.
