My Dear Friends,

The community of Nativity Church is a year round caring family.  During the Novemberfest, it will be our joy to welcome your family to ours.

Please bring your family and friends as we celebrate our 38th year.  We are pleased to host the 3rd largest social event in Hillsborough County, which attracts over 200,000 people to our parish campus.  This is a family event that offers delicious food, great entertainment, rides and many games with prizes to win, and perhaps most important, an opportunity to meet and greet your neighbors, friends, and old classmates.

I look forward to seeing you at this year's Novemberfest!

Very Rev. Arthur J. Proulx, V. F.
Pastor of Nativity Catholic Church

Novemberfest is Nativity Catholic Church's largest fundraiser that supports the education of our children through our School and our Religious Education program.  It is an annual event that attracts over tens of thousands of visitors each year.

Directions:
Novemberfest is held on the festival grounds of Nativity Catholic Church,
 located at Highway 60 (Brandon Blvd.) and Bryan Road in east Brandon, Florida.
