Ohio Festival Weekend: August 22-25, 2024 (2024)

Shaker Woods, The Great Trail, Dog Fests, Garlic, Perch, Pride and German, Indian, Ukrainian, Lebanese, Romanian (and more) Cultural Festivals.

Welcome back, Festival Fans.

Festival numbers dip down a little bit with everyone getting situated for school, but there’s still an impressive amount with over 60 festivals going on throughout the state. Add the county fairs and shows also going on and you have a great weekend.

Some interesting festivals to note this weekend include…

…the German-American Festival (Review) in Oregon (near Toledo).
This is a huge festival with plenty of great entertainment, cold beer and delicious food.
A little planning may be required as certain dishes are found at certain stations (and food tickets are used)

The St. Mark’s Egyptian Festival(Review) in Seven Hills provides an assortment of delicious food and desserts, a market, activities for the kids and more.

St. Josaphat Ukrainian Festival (Review) in Parma also has some great food, a ton of desserts, live music, bounce houses and more.

The Cleveland Garlic Festival (Review) takes place in Shaker Square, offering vendors selling garlic and garlic foods (garlic fries seen above), plenty of great music, a kids’ zone, a grill-off and more!
