Upcoming Festival Weekend: April 24-27, 2025

From Hillbillies and Bigfoot to Pickles and Pie – a lot of festivals to enjoy this weekend!

Welcome back, Festival Fans.

It’s a huge festival weekend! Not only are Southern States heavy with festival offerings this weekend, but the Northern States are starting to enter in their festival season. Add all the Earth Day Celebrations this weekend and you’ll understand why the map below is just popping with festival cities.

The big states this weekend are California, Florida, Georgia, North Carolina, and Texas but just about every state has a nice amount of festivals going on.

And while the general festival themes of previous weekends continue (ie Spring Festivals, Maple Festivals, Floral Festivals, etc.), there are some rather particular types of festivals going on this weekend, such as…

Mule Day in Alabama
the Fouke Monster Festival Arkansas
Pie Festival in Arkansas
Tamale Festival in California
Fruit and Nut Festival in California
Gold Nugget Days in California
Bigfoot Days in Colorado
Lionfish Derby in Florida
Vidalia Onion Festival in Georgia
Hornyhead Fish Festival in Georgia
Pretzel Fest in Illinois
Viking Fest in Indiana
Cowboy Days in Kansas
Hillbilly Days in Kentucky (Review)
Colonel Fest in Kentucky
Cracklin Cook-Off in Louisiana
Ragtime Festival in Michigan
Clown Festival in Missouri
Empanada Festival in New Jersey
Pickle Festival in North Carolina
Rattlesnake Festivals in Oklahoma and Texas
Footloose Festival in Oklahoma
Rice Festival in South Carolina
Sweet Potato Festival in South Carolina
World’s Biggest Fish Fry in Tennessee
Chicken Fried Steak Festival in Texas
Eeyore’s Birthday Celebration in Texas
Testicle Festival in Texas
Cupcake and Beer Festival in West Virginia
plus Strawberry Festivals
Taco Festivals
Renaissance Fairs and Medieval Festivals
Celtic Festivals
Blossom Festivals
Ramp Festivals
and more!

Because there are so many festivals listed below, I am going to start HIGHLIGHTING festivals again so that some interesting ones don’t get overlooked. A splash of color here and there may also help break the visual monotony as you scroll down to see what’s going on, helping you take a better notice of everything happening.

Please let me know if you prefer the highlighting or if you find it annoying.

SPECIAL MESSAGE FROM ME:

I’ve been updating the Festival Guides, removing the asterisk (*) once able to confirm the 2025 date and link.

I am currently looking at November and December this month and will likely check through August events soon after.

Keep in mind that the festival websites linked to events – even those I haven’t yet confirmed – may already be updated with 2025 info.

****

Have a great weekend, everyone!

If you happen to be in Ohio this weekend, check this weekend’s post at OhioFestivals.net to see what’s going on. You can find this week’s post at https://ohiofestivals.net/ohio-weekend-042725/

Until next week…

Love, Peace and Festival Grease!
