BestFest 2026 

Benefit for Hospice of Dubuque

BestFest 2026, the annual celebration recognizing “the best” of more than 50 area businesses, will take place Thursday, March 26, from 5:00–7:30 p.m. at the Dubuque County Fairgrounds.

During the month of January, tri-state patrons voted for their favorite local businesses in a wide variety of categories. Winners will be recognized at BestFest and will showcase samples of their products throughout the evening.

Tickets are $40 and are available at the Hospice of Dubuque office and online at hospiceofdubuque.org . Tickets are limited and early purchase is encouraged.

All proceeds benefit Hospice of Dubuque, supporting care for seriously ill patients and their families throughout the tri-state area.
