Ohio’s Memorial Day Festival Weekend: May 26-29, 2022

Many classic Ohio Festivals take place this weekend!

Even with Ohio’s festival numbers dropping a bit, there is no denying that this is a significant festival weekend. This weekend acts as the first true weekend of summer and Memorial Day gives many festivals the opportunity to run longer (giving us the opportunity to check out more festivals).

Maybe this weekend will be when you attend your first festival of the year.

Whether or not that’s true, there are some really special Ohio festivals this weekend.

In Port Clinton, for example, there’s a Walleye Festival with plenty of rides, vendors and fried food – including perch and walleye – right there on Lake Erie to give you the best views. Meanwhile, in downtown Cincinnati, the Taste of Cincinnati will be offering over 300 food items, including the infamous goetta, to accompany all the live music, beer and fun.

Utica, home of Velvet Ice Cream, hosts the Old Fashioned Ice Cream Festival (with huge servings) and New Straitsville remembers its history with a working moonshine still at the Moonshine Festival.

Plus there’s the Tremont Greek Festival in Cleveland, a National Rib Cook-Off in Berea, the Mohican Traditions Arts and Crafts Festival in Loudonville, the Festival of Flags in Oak Hill and Bike Week starts up in Sandusky.

And did I mention that Jeni’s Splendid Ice Creams is having a Strawberry themed festival at Land-Grant Brewery in Columbus? It’s worth checking out. Along with strawberry items galore, there are even strawberry beers and hard seltzer.

If you are overwhelmed by all the choices, please look to my reviews below. I have been to 10 of this weekend’s festivals, so they could really help you decide if you can’t go to them all.

However you decide to spend your weekend, I hope it’s a great one with wonderful weather, friends and family and pleasant memories.

And, if you happen to go out of state this weekend, feel free to look at the Festival Guides at Festival Guides and Reviews. There will be more festivals waiting for you there.

It should be a great weekend!

Love, Peace and Festival Grease!
