Bees, Beer, Pinball and Polka.
Welcome back, festival fans.
We’re getting through the last few weeks before festivals really start ramping up.
Many events are still indoors, thankfully, as the colder temps aren’t letting go completely (thanks, Groundhog!).
But there are some interesting things to do this weekend in Ohio…
Do you like Beer?
Then check out the Van Wert on Tap Craft Beer Festival.
Beer with Pinball?
Head to Girard for the Ohio PinBrew Fest.
Beer with Polka?
Perrysburg is where you’ll find the Holy Toledo Polka Days.
Beer with Bees?
The Oxford Bee Festival does have hard cider, milk stout and IPA.
Not Beer – Wine instead?
The Vintage Ohio South Wine Festival in Hamilton is waiting for you.
And, if none of that works, there are also show about Horses, Ceramics, Art and Holistic Health this weekend.
It’s also Palm Sunday Weekend, so you best get those Easter goodies ready if you’re not yet prepared. Traditionally, Easter Weekend is usually a lighter festival weekend.

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 gone through June a second time and it’s looking really good. I’ll be working on November and December this month.
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!
