Wurstfest From Nov. 3-12, the Wurstfest grounds near Landa Park were packed with attendees enjoying pitchers of beer, German cuisine, live music and vendors. Originating in 1961, Wurstfest began as a one-day festival created by the city meat inspector, Ed Grist, as a festival to honor sausage, according to the Wurstfest website.
