Ankeny Area Democrats (IA)

2026 Ankeny Area Democrats Annual Summerfest BBQ!

Saturday, July 11

11:30a- 3:00p

After the Summerfest Parade


NEW LOCATION THIS YEAR

Southview Middle School

1020 SW Cherry St, Ankeny, IA


Speakers to be announced soon!


Ticket price includes one sandwich, sides, dessert, and a drink. Vegetarian and gluten free options will be available on request.


No need to bring your folding chairs and sunscreen this year - we will be inside!


This year, we’re changing things up again - that's growth, baby!! For logistical reasons, as well as safety and security of our guests, volunteers, candidates, and elected officials, we will be hosting the BBQ indoors at Southview Middle School in Ankeny. This will allow us to invite more folks, and decrease rental expenses.


Our Summerfest BBQ will again be catered by B Fabulous, so everyone—especially our incredible volunteers—can sit back, relax, and enjoy the event together.


Every dollar raised goes directly toward our mission: organizing, mobilizing, and winning in 2026 and beyond.


Individual ticket prices will increase $5 on Saturday, July 4 to compensate for associated costs related to late registrations.


Please send any accessibility accommodations requests to: AnkenyAreaDemocrats@gmail.com
