Apple Annie

About Apple Annies

The Apple Annies are the Goodwill Ambassadors of Song for the City of La Crescent and the La Crescent Applefest.

Each year, a new Annie is selected at the annual Apple Annie Cabaret.  The new Annie, along with Annies from previous years, performs at events in the Seven Rivers area throughout the year.

Apple Annies donate their time and travel expenses for their performances.  The Annies would like to give a special thank you to Merchants Bank for their continued sponsorship of the Apples Annies.  We also thank the individuals and businesses who have donated money to cover the cost of equipment, accompanists, and other expenses.

Could you be the next Apple Annie?

The Apple Annie contest is open to women who are 26 years of age or older. Apple Annie is a singer and entertainer. The Cabaret and contest will be held on Saturday, August 24, 2024 at the La Crescent Event Center, at 6:30 pm.  Each candidate will be asked to prepare three songs. Two will be used for the contest with the third used in case of a tie. Copies of your music should be submitted with your application for our accompanist to practice.  Please contact us for more information! AppleAnnies@ApplefestUSA.com
