More than 180 Festivals this weekend, festival fans!
This weekend, as festival numbers in Florida and Georgia decrease in numbers, festivals in the northern states go festival crazy. Ohio is this big state this weekend with over 40 festivals, but Indiana, Illinois and Wisconsin are not far behind with 20-25 each. And there are still plenty of festivals in the other st
Just look at the map below – it’s rather impressive.
There are some rather interesting festivals in Ohio this weekend, including the Tiro Testicle Festival where you can enjoy deep fried testicles and have a cold beer at the Tiro Tavern (check out my review in the link below). Other festivals to check out include the Whitehouse Cherry Fest, the Lebanon Country Music Festival, Riverfront Irish Festival (Cuyahoga Falls), Poultry Days (Versailles), and the Cincinnati Fringe Festival.
So be sure to look at the full list below and check out some of my reviews if you’re interested in visiting a festival.
