Bacon, Maple, Ice Wine, and the Serpent Mounds.
A Testicle Festival too.
Welcome back, festival fans.
It’s a weird time in the festival year as Spring Break is affecting many of us this weekend and next.
There is a handful of festivals celebrating Bacon in College Corner, Maple Sugar in Bath, Ice Wine in Madison and a Peace Summit at the Serpent Mounds in Peebles…
…which is definitely worth a visit.
There are also some Markets and Shows offering art, crafts, anime, reptiles and more.
And, especially if you’re in northwest Ohio, it may be worth crossing the border to Michigan to check out the Deerfield Testicle Festival (Review)…
…where you’ll be welcomed with open arms…
…and fed with some delicious grub that includes beans, coleslaw, gizzards and Rocky Mountain Oysters…
…but we know they’re not oysters.
Honestly, they were delicious.

FESTIVAL UPDATE: I’ve been updating the Ohio Festival Guide and Ohio Fair and Show Guide for 2025.
If you didn’t already know, any date with an asterisk (*) means that I haven’t confirmed that event. Once the date is confirmed by me, I remove the asterisk and update the listing as necessary. Certain events will also get copied over to the Cleveland Festival Guide, the Columbus Festival Guide or the Cincinnati Festival Guide.
I have just finished October and have updated April listings.
As an FYI, just because the event has an asterisk doesn’t mean that the official festival website linked to the event isn’t already updated. So feel free to check it, just to be sure.

Have a great weekend!
