AUTHOR’S NOTE: This post documents my experience on August 4, 2019, but you can read about my first experience (2010) at this festival by clicking HERE.
When I went this year, I took my kids with me and didn’t take many photos of twins specifically.
Therefore, I have used photos from the 2010 experience.

At the Twins Days Festival in Twinsburg, Ohio…
…it’s completely natural to start seeing double (2010).
In fact, it might be hard not to (2010)…
…as the annual festival is the largest gathering of twins and multiples…
…in not only Ohio…
…or the country…
…but in the entire world!
Each year, thousands of twins come together, dressed similarly according to that year’s theme (2010)…
…and have a ball meeting other sets of twins (2010)…
…while often taking tons of pictures (2010).
One interesting offering at this festival is an on-site research area (twins are extremely important in research projects)…
…where twins can sign up and participate in various projects…
…usually for a modest compensation like a gift bag or financial stipend.
Beyond this, the festival is like most other festivals…
…with a carnival area just outside the main entrance…
…offering rides…
…games…
…carnival food and more…
…a vendor area in a nice shaded area…
…where festival goers could shop among products that included…
…backyard games…
…glass decor…
…jewelry…
…and airbrushed shirts…
…multiples stages around the grounds with either music entertainment…
…or twin-related competitions…
…an enclosed beer garden…
…and a huge food truck area…
…where the options were plentiful…
…offering everything from pierogi and potato pancakes…
…to teriyaki chicken…
…and all sorts of sweet options in-between…
…not to mention the free Twin Pops handed out nearby…
…which were not overlooked by my children.
