The first polka Mass was celebrated by Father George Balasko in 1972 in Ohio and the idea was spread by Father Frank Perkovich of Minnesota throughout the 70s and 80s. A polka Mass has all the elements of a regular Mass, the main difference is the hymns are sung to traditional polka tunes or waltzes.
