Our story

Started by three friends and a very long dog.

Rose City Wienerfest began in 2026 with a folding table and a dachshund named Ruby. It has grown into Tyler, Texas's annual dog day — still organized by the same three cofounders, still built around the same promise that a good day out should send something back into the community.

The full festival guide — schedule, map and ticket details — is being finished now. In the meantime, vendor, volunteer and sponsorship applications are open.
