About kids’ events in Oshkosh

Oshkosh is the home of OshKosh B'gosh overalls and of the EAA AirVenture fly-in each July, when its airport briefly becomes the busiest in the world. The EAA Aviation Museum, Menominee Park's zoo and Lake Winnebago's beaches are the family fixtures. Oshkosh Public Library's 1895 building is downtown.

Holiday events for kids in Oshkosh, 2026: tree lightings, light displays, Santa visits and gingerbread workshops, day by day.

8 children’s events are on in Oshkosh in the next seven days, read every night from the calendars of Oshkosh Public Library (1 branches, 39 upcoming programmes), plus Paine Art Center & Gardens. Library programmes are free. Museum and zoo events say “admission may apply”; check the venue for prices.
