Upcoming Festival Weekend: August 14-17, 2025

Corn, Tomato, Peach and Watermelon Festivals as well as Cultural Festivals, Music Fests and more.

Welcome back, Festival Fans.

Another huge weekend, particularly in the north, as we enter Oktoberfest Season.

I’ve been updating the 2025 Oktoberfest and German Festival Guide as I go through October festivals dates on all the guides.

Once I finish, I’ll work on the map for the Oktoberfest Guide (which should be done by next week).

In the meantime, you can access the Guide at any time at https://festivalguidesandreviews.com/oktoberfest-guide-2025/

It’s another weekend of hundreds of festivals with the big states being California, Colorado, Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, Minnesota, New York, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin.

Popular festivals this weekend include those celebrating Tomatoes, Corn, Peaches, Watermelon and Kielbasa/Sausage/Bratwurst. Many Indian Festivals as well.

If you live in Michigan, I have some experiences of returning festivals that I’d like to share, such as…

…the Michigan Renaissance Festival in Holly (Review)…

…the Danish Festival in Greenville (Review)…

…the DeWitt Ox Roast (Review)…

…the Montrose Blueberry Festival (Review)…

…and the Sumner Daze Festival (Review).

Here are some interesting festivals I’ve noticed…
