Upcoming Festival Weekend: May 30

550 Festivals as we enter June.
It’s Strawberry Season in the North, Pride Month for everyone, and Juneteenth Festivals are already starting.

Welcome back, Festival Fans!

We are entering the month of June and many of the northern states are starting to explode with festivals, especially states like Illinois, Indiana, Maryland, Michigan, Minnesota, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin. Meanwhile, Kentucky, Missouri, Virginia, and Texas are also delivering a nice amount this weekend.

There are over 550 festivals this weekend (600 if you include Ohio).

Just check out the map!

Strawberries are in season up north and there are many (15) festivals to celebrate this. Down south, you have Watermelon, Peach, Pineapple and Blueberry Festivals.

Interestingly enough, there quite a few Dairy/Milk/Cheese Festivals out there this weekend.

It’s also Pride Month and there are at least 60 Pride Festivals going on this weekend alone!

This weekend, you can find a nice variety in this weekend’s festival selection, including various Community/Town Celebrations, Beer/Wine/Alcohol Festivals, Music Festivals, Art Festivals, all sorts of Cultural Festival, Food Festivals and more.

Some festivals I really want to point out this weekend are listed here:

Hank Williams Festival (AL)

As before, I’m going to highlight some of the more interesting festivals below (based only on what I think sounds cool). I’m a fan of cultural festivals and couldn’t highlight them all but there are many others out there.
