Over 80 festivals celebrating Juneteenth, Pride, Fish, Duct Tape, Dean Martin and the return of the Testicle Festival
If you don’t already have plans, this is a fantastic festival weekend because there is so much to see, do and celebrate! This is one of those weekends when many Ohio classic festivals take place like the Duct Tape Festival in Avon, the Festival of the Fish in Vermilion, the Simply Slavic Heritage Festival in Youngstown, and the Dean Martin Hometown Celebration in Steubenville,
It’s also the weekend of Juneteenth (June 19) with most celebrations happening Saturday June 18 in such cities as Oberlin, Cincinnati, Athens, Springboro, Cleveland and Columbus (which has 3 Juneteenth Festivals). Don’t know what Juneteenth is? Check out my experience of the Juneteenth Ohio Festival to learn a little about its history – https://ohiofestivals.net/23-juneteenthohio-columbus-june-17-2011/
Since it’s also Pride Month, there are at least two Pride Fests going on this weekend with the big Pride Fest in Columbus and another fest in Warren.
And there are some festivals taking place this weekend that usually occur at different weekends of the year. So, if you couldn’t make it before to them before, this weekend may be your chance. I’m talking specifically about festivals like the Washboard Music Festival in Logan, Heart of Ohio USA Days Festival in Centerburg, The Hooley in Cleveland, and the Tiro Testicle Festival, which I thought was going to be completely cancelled due to construction at the Tavern.
Now the Testicle Festival is back with a large serving of fried Rocky Mountain Oysters for you to try and enjoy! The nearby Fire Department won’t be able to help out in food this year, though, because they have their own festival coming up next weekend.
Other festivals worth noting include the Berlin MooFest, the Toledo Night Market, the Tusculum Street Fest in Cincinnati, the Zane’s Trace Commemoration in Zanesville, the Celtic Fest Ohio in Waynesville, the Summer Solstice Celebration in Peebles (at the Serpent Mounds), and the North Market Night Market…
…some of which I’ll actually be able to go to this weekend!
Below, as normal, you will see a list of festival reviews (17 this weekend), a map of the festival cities (including out of state locations) and your usual listings for Ohio’s Fairs and Festivals.
BUT, this week, I’ve decided to add the city listings as well for your convenience. These are simply festivals pulled from the main Ohio Guide and put into smaller guides for those only interested in festivals around Cleveland, Toledo, Columbus, etc.
I do want to say that the Ohio Festival Guide is always a priority and sometimes I miss copying over festivals to the smaller lists. Because of this, I do ask that you look at the Ohio Guide as well.
Happy Pride, Happy Juneteenth Day, Happy Father’s Day and may you all have a fantastic weekend!
Love, Peace and Festival Grease!
Upcoming Festivals this Father’s Day Weekend: June 16-19, 2022
