The Festival, held every year on the second Saturday in August, draws thousands of people from our region to see friends, browse arts and crafts, listen to a wide range of music on two live stages, play games, eat lots of festival food, enjoy a locally brewed craft beer at our Beer Garden, participate in our annual corn eating contest and enjoy the day. We typically host over 135 craft vendors and 25 food vendors.  The Festival culminates in a large outdoor concert by the popular party band The SkyCoasters from 7:30 p.m. until 10:30 p.m. Many food vendors continue to serve concert attendees throughout the evening.

Proceeds from the Festival are used to support many local, state, national and international service organizations and causes, including the Boy Scouts, the Avon Food Pantry, Teresa House, Linking Hands for Learning, Shelter Box, Honor Flight, the Genesee Valley Rotary Camp, Rotary International Youth Exchange, and the Rotary Foundation. The Avon Rotary Club would like to thank our sponsors, advertisers, vendors, and volunteers. Without your participation and support, the Festival would not be possible.

The Festival has handicapped parking available, as well as regular shuttle service from the main parking area, which is located only minutes from the Festival site at the Avon Middle School.

Pets are not permitted at the Festival. Please leave them at home.
